In short
The landlord proposed a rent of £2,250 a month for a two-bedroom part-furnished flat in E15, up from £2,000 a month. The tribunal determined a market rent of £2,050 a month, effective from 15 March 2026. It relied mainly on flats in the same building, placing the property below a larger two-bathroom penthouse quoted by the tenant but above a one-bathroom flat, and the landlord did not respond.
