Flat 7 Hazelwood, 51/53 Alness Road, Whalley Range, Manchester, M16 8HW

The landlord asked for £394/month; the tribunal set a higher open-market figure — an outcome the pre-2026 rules allowed but the Renters' Rights Act has since abolished.

Stated in the decision as "£155.00 per week" — converted to a calendar-month figure here. Decided 29 Apr 2025.

What this decision means

In an open-market rent case, the tribunal determines what the property would reasonably let for on the open market — usually after a tenant refers a Section 13 rent increase notice. The panel (typically including a chartered surveyor) considers local comparable lettings and the property's condition, and may deduct for disrepair or tenant improvements.
