In short
The landlord proposed increasing the rent of a flat in IP7 from £595 a month to £650 a month. The tribunal determined a rent of £650 a month, effective from 1 September 2025. Neither party provided rental evidence, so the tribunal relied on its own general knowledge of rents in Hadleigh and took account of the flat's location close to the High Street.
