Apartment 3, Edward House, 30 Edward Street, Stockport, SK1 3DQ

Struck outNew rulesDecided 25 June 2026Case MAN/00BS/MRA/2026/0001

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's agent proposed raising the rent for a flat in SK1 from £850.00 a month to £925.00 a month from 1 August 2026. The tribunal struck out the application because the notice was invalid: the proposed start date was neither the start of a tenancy period nor at least 52 weeks after the tenancy began. As a result, the tribunal did not set a rent.

Neither side gave the tribunal comparable lettings.
