In short

The landlord, Sovereign Housing Association, proposed a rent of £677.25 a month for an unfurnished two-bedroom flat in SP11, up from £645 a month. The tribunal determined a market rent of £760 a month, effective from 11 April 2026. It reduced its starting figure of £900 a month by £90 for the flat's unmodernised condition and by £50 for anti-social behaviour in the area, and noted that the landlord did not respond to the tribunal.
