What the decision shows

The published decision gives the rent set, £1,950 a month, but not the landlord’s proposal. Older decisions often publish the rent register entry only.

Under the Renters’ Rights Act rules the new rent starts from the first rent day on or after the decision, with no backdating, so the landlord also lost the increase for the months the case took.
