In short

The landlord, a company, proposed raising the rent of a two-bedroom flat in N11 from £1,270 a month to £1,400 a month. The tribunal determined a rent of £1,400 a month, effective from 1 July 2025, relying on its own expert's view and general knowledge of local rents. It took the noise from the public house below into account but made no further reduction for it.
