Struck outPre-Act rulesDecided 29 April 2025Case MAN/00BN/MNR/2024/0144

No rent was set

The application was struck out, so the tribunal did not set a rent. This most often happens when the landlord's notice was invalid or the tribunal had no jurisdiction.

In short

The landlord, Great Places Housing Association, proposed a rent of £90.81 per week, including £18.77 service charges, for a flat in M16. The tribunal struck out the tenant's referral because it had no jurisdiction to determine the rent, following the Court of Appeal decision in Contour Homes Ltd v Rowen. It added that, even if it had been wrong on jurisdiction, it considered the proposed rent reasonable and well below market value because comparable properties in the area had significantly higher rents.
