BackdatedThe new rent took effect from 24 June 2026, before the decision was made. Backdating was allowed under the pre-Act rules.

In short

The landlord proposed a rent of £1,105 a month, up from £1,070 a month, for a three-bedroom semi-detached house in TS10. The tribunal determined a market rent of £975 a month, effective from 24 June 2026. It preferred the tenant's asking-rent evidence of an identical house on the same street, which had been reduced in April 2026 and was closest in time to the valuation date, over the landlord's achieved lettings, which dated from 2025 or were located further away.

What decided it:Comparables rejected
