In short
The landlord asked for a rent of £2550.00 per calendar month, up from £2350.00 per calendar month, for a four-bedroom semi-detached house in UB3. The tribunal determined a market rent of £2550.00 per calendar month from 1 May 2026, after valuing the property at £2700.00 per calendar month in modernised, good order and reducing that figure by 5% for the shared driveway and alley. The tribunal relied partly on its own expertise and knowledge of local rents, and decided the case on the papers without an inspection.
Both sides gave the tribunal comparable lettings.
