In short

The landlord, A2Dominion Residential Limited, proposed a rent of £2,450 per month for a two-bedroom flat in E3, up from £1,799.67 per month, starting 1 May 2024. The tribunal determined a rent of £1,890 per month from 1 May 2024. It valued the flat at £2,100 per month in good condition, then reduced that by 10% because a leaking shower had caused damp and mould that had not been repaired.
