63 Benson Avenue, East Ham, London E6 3EE
Struck outPre-Act rulesDecided 29 May 2026Case LON/00BB/MNR/2026/0239
No rent was set
The application was struck out, so the tribunal did not set a rent. This most often happens when the landlord's notice was invalid or the tribunal had no jurisdiction.
In short
The landlord proposed raising the monthly rent of a property in E6 from £2,050 to £2,650 a month. The tribunal struck out the application because the tenancy agreement contains a binding rent review clause, which it found removes its jurisdiction to set a new rent under section 14 of the Housing Act 1988. The tribunal noted that the landlord may serve a further notice of increase based on that rent review clause.
