In short
The landlord proposed raising the rent of a one-room bedsit with shared bathroom and WC in a shared house in NW3 from £825 a month to £1,450 a month. The tribunal decided the rent should be £1,100 a month from 1 May 2025, starting from its own general view of £1,300 a month for the property fitted and in good order, and deducting £200 because the property is not self-contained and shares a bathroom and WC on another floor.
The panel relied mainly on its own knowledge of local rents.
