8 Abercorn Way, London, SE1 5HL
Struck outDecided 29 September 2026Case LON/00BE/MNR/2026/0413
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 served a notice of rent increase under section 13 of the Housing Act 1988 on 30 March 2026, and the tenant referred it to the tribunal. The tribunal found the notice invalid because it was served while the tenancy was still a contractual periodic tenancy rather than a statutory one, so it had no effect and the tribunal had no jurisdiction to set a new rent. The rent stays at its passing level of £1615 pcm.
