Rent tribunal decisions with a hearing or an inspection

The minority of rent cases where the tribunal held a hearing or inspected the home, instead of deciding on the papers.

Filter these 871 decisions

Why it matters

Most rent cases are decided on the papers. What the landlord sends in advance is usually everything the tribunal will see.

64% cut

Of 11 new-rules decisions in these decisions, 7 set the rent below the landlord’s notice. Under the new rules a challenge can only lower the rent.

1 asked too little

The tribunal valued the home above the notice but could only award the notice figure. Under-pricing is now a 12-month ceiling.

1 with no increase

New-rules decisions where the rent was held at, or set below, what the tenant already paid.
