In short
The landlord proposed raising the rent of a small bedsit flat in E15 from £650 a month to £1,600. The tribunal determined a rent of £750 a month, taking effect from 27 November 2025 for reasons of hardship, after deductions from an open market rent of £1,000 a month for the flat's small size, lack of white goods and disrepair.
