In short
The landlord proposed a rent of £1920 a month, up from £1820 a month. The tribunal determined a rent of £1900 a month from 31 May 2026 for a two-bedroom flat in NW2, rejecting the tenant's argument that it was a one-bedroom flat and that the rent should be £1750 a month. It relied on its own knowledge of market rents in the area and found the minor disrepair did not justify a deduction.
