In short
The landlord proposed a rent of £2,450 a month, up from the existing £1,982 a month, for a two-bedroom flat in W5. The tribunal determined a rent of £2,100 a month, starting 1 June 2026. It found the flat would let for £2,300 a month if fully fitted and in good order, and deducted £200 for minor defects, including flooding from a shared boiler room, and the flat's position on the busy Hanger Lane red route.
