The new rent takes effect from 1 October 2026.

In short

The landlord proposed £2,000 a month for a two-bedroom flat in N10, up from an existing rent of £1,750 a month. The tribunal determined a rent of £1,900 a month, effective from 1 October 2026. It set a market rent of £2,000 a month for the property in good order, deducted about 5% for its poor decorative condition and floor coverings, and refused the tenant's request for a later start date because the hardship evidence covered only one of the three joint tenants.
