The new rent takes effect from 10 June 2026.

In short

The landlord proposed raising the rent from £2,750 a month to £3,250 a month for a three-bedroom detached house in N14. The tribunal determined the market rent at £3,250 a month from 10 June 2026, relying on limited direct comparables and its general knowledge, and noting the property's detached layout, garden, garage and position overlooking Oakwood Park. It rejected the tenant's claim of undue hardship, finding that paying a mortgage on another property was a choice rather than undue hardship.
