In short

The landlord proposed raising the rent of a two-bedroom flat in M28 from £895 a month to £1035 a month. The tribunal determined a rent of £995 a month, effective from 30 August 2026, relying on its own expertise and the comparable lettings from both parties, which it found limited in detail. It made no deduction for the tenant's complaints because no evidence was provided to justify one.
