The new rent takes effect from 24 June 2026.

In short

The landlord proposed raising the rent from £2,350 a month to £2,950 a month for a three-bedroom detached house in NW4. The tribunal determined a market rent of £2,950 a month, starting 24 June 2026 rather than the date proposed, because it found undue hardship for the tenant. It valued the property at £3,300 a month in good order and reduced this by 10% for disrepair, including damp, cracking and a poor garage.
