BackdatedThe new rent took effect from 2 March 2026, before the decision was made. Backdating was allowed under the pre-Act rules.

In short

The landlord proposed a rent of £1900 a month for a one-bedroom flat in N15, up from £1600 a month. The tribunal determined a rent of £1800 a month, starting 2 March 2026. It found the flat very large for a one-bedroom property, with a large living room and a loft store that is not a second bedroom, and valued it using its own knowledge of Haringey rents.
