8a Aldborough Road St Leonards-on-Sea East Sussex TN37 6SE
Struck outPre-Act rulesDecided 22 July 2026Case HAV/21UD/MNR/2026/0066
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 proposed a new rent of £750 a month for a studio flat in TN37, up from £368.33 a month. The tribunal struck out the application because the proposed start date of 12 April 2026 did not fall at the beginning of a tenancy period, so it had no jurisdiction to determine a market rent.
