Why it matters
A monthly snapshot of what the tribunal decided. Decisions are published weeks after they are made, so the latest months keep filling in; counts here are by decision date.
Of 26 new-rules decisions in these decisions, 16 set the rent below the landlord’s notice. Under the new rules a challenge can only lower the rent.
New-rules decisions where the rent was held at, or set below, what the tenant already paid.
Condition comes up in 32 market-rent decisions in these decisions. The tribunal values the home as it is.
