Matched in the decision textIn short
The landlord proposed a rent of £3100 in place of the passing rent of £2700 per calendar month for a two-bedroom furnished flat in E14. The tribunal determined a market rent of £2700 per calendar month, starting 16 September 2026. It reasoned that the landlord's figure was unrealistically high compared with better-quality flats nearby in Charter Street and Marsh Wall, and the landlord made no representations.
