Flat 145 Dibdin House, Maida Vale, London, W9 1QG
Evidence considered
- No comparable evidence discussed; figure derived from statutory RPI-based capping formula under the Rent Acts (Maximum Fair Rent) Order 1999, applied to the previously registered rent of £240.50 per week.
Tenant submitted evidence: no. Landlord submitted evidence: no.
Tribunal's reasoning
This is a Rent Act 1977 fair rent registration (not an assured tenancy market rent determination). The tribunal assessed the fair rent at £418.00 per week, but this was capped by the Rent Acts (Maximum Fair Rent) Order 1999 formula, which increases the previous registered rent (£240.50/week) by RPI change plus a statutory uplift. The capped maximum fair rent of £278.50 per week was therefore registered instead of the uncapped assessed value.
