What the tribunal said

The landlord proposed £1,325 per month via a Section 13 notice and later indicated a willingness to accept £1,275 per month. The tribunal considered local comparable rental evidence, making adjustments for advertised versus achieved rents. The tribunal determined that the open-market rent was £1,275 per month and found insufficient evidence to delay the effective date on grounds of undue hardship.
