In short
The landlord proposed a rent of £1,450 a month, up from £1,400 a month, for a one-bedroom flat in CR0. The tribunal determined the rent at £1,450 a month from 12 October 2026, the figure the landlord proposed. It relied on its own knowledge and the landlord's comparable lettings from the same development, and found the tenant's repair and maintenance complaints did not materially affect the market rent; with no evidence supplied, it refused the tenant's request for a later start on hardship grounds.
