In short
The landlord proposed increasing the rent of a two-bedroom ground-floor flat in HA3 from £1,650 a month to £1,895 a month. The tribunal determined a rent of £1,650 a month, effective from 28 June 2026. It valued the flat at £1,800 a month in good condition, based on the landlord's second-floor comparable in the same development adjusted for the ground-floor position, then deducted £135 a month for the worn kitchen and bathroom and rounded the resulting £1,665 to £1,650.
Only the landlord gave the tribunal comparable lettings.
