In short
The landlord, Peabody Trust, proposed a rent of £1,136 a month in place of the existing £1,081 a month for a one-bedroom flat in NW1. The tribunal determined a rent of £1,096 a month from 5 April 2024, after valuing the open market rent at £1,700 a month and reducing it to £1,370 a month for lack of storage, no proper central heating, a poor bathroom and water pressure problems. It noted that the landlord's 80%-of-market-rent criterion gave £1,096 a month, the lowest of its three criteria.
Only the tenant gave the tribunal comparable lettings.
