In short
The landlord proposed raising the rent of a three-bedroom terraced house in PE3 from £950 a month to £1,050 a month. The tribunal determined a market rent of £1,000 a month, effective from 23 March 2026. It found that the tenant's comparables pointed to about £1,000 a month and that the landlord's higher-priced comparables sat outside the general range of £950 to £1,050 a month.
