In short

The landlord proposed £383.07 a week, up from the passing rent of £365.52 a week, for a two-bedroom flat in E3. The tribunal determined a rent of £400 a week from 6 April 2026, starting from a market valuation of £425 a week in good order and deducting £25 a week for inadequate floor finishes and missing white goods. The tribunal refused the tenant's hardship request because no supporting documents were provided.
