The new rent takes effect from 1 June 2026.

In short

The landlord's notice proposed a new rent of £2,200.00 per calendar month for a three-bedroom flat in SE19, replacing an existing rent of £1,994.67 per calendar month. The tribunal determined the market rent at £2,200.00 per calendar month, after starting from £2,500 per calendar month and deducting £300 for the lack of carpets and curtains and the lack of recent modernisation. The tribunal set the start date as 1 June 2026 rather than the date in the notice because the tenant's reduced working hours meant the increase would cause undue hardship.
