BackdatedThe new rent took effect from 6 April 2026, before the decision was made. Backdating was allowed under the pre-Act rules.
In short
The landlord, ARHAG Housing Association, proposed a rent of £150.90 a week, up from £143.99 a week, for a three-bedroom flat in E15 from 6 April 2026. The tribunal determined a rent of £500 a week, which it says includes the service charge, from 6 April 2026, based on its own knowledge of market rents in Newham for a fully fitted property. It found the disrepair raised by the tenant was minor and made no deduction, and it did not defer the start date for hardship.
The panel relied mainly on its own knowledge of local rents.
