BackdatedThe new rent took effect from 2 January 2026, before the decision was made. Backdating was allowed under the pre-Act rules.

In short

The landlord proposed a rent of £2950.00 per calendar month, up from £2500.00 per calendar month, for a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in E15. The tribunal determined a market rent of £2600.00 per calendar month from 2 January 2026, starting from £2900.00 per calendar month for a modernised property in good order and deducting £300.00 per calendar month for the property's tendency to condensation and mould and its general quality. The tribunal found undue hardship was not proven, so it did not defer the start date.
