In short
The landlord asked for £1,900 a month for a two-bedroom flat in HA3 from 28 June 2025. The tribunal determined a rent of £1,650 a month, effective from 28 June 2025, using its own knowledge and experience to value a comparable first-floor flat in the same block at £1,675 a month. It then reduced that figure by £25 a month for the lack of repair at the property.
