The new rent takes effect from 1 August 2026.

In short

A landlord asked for the rent of a two-bedroom bungalow in NE32 to rise from £500 a month to £940 a month. The tribunal determined a market rent of £975 a month, effective 1 August 2026. It valued a modernised, good-order property at £980 a month from its own expertise and knowledge of local rents, then deducted £5 a month for white goods the tenant had replaced.

Both sides gave the tribunal comparable lettings.
