"Typical" is the median. n is the number of decisions each figure comes from. Figures from fewer than 5 decisions are shown as "too few".
Old rules: the landlord's notice was dated before 1 May 2026, when the tribunal could set the rent higher than the landlord asked. New rules: notice dated on or after 1 May 2026; the tribunal can only confirm the landlord's figure or set a lower one.
Past decisions are not a prediction. Each tribunal decides on the evidence in front of it.
Left out of the percentages, but listed below: housing association and affordable rents, rooms in shared houses, rents that include bills, register entries without the landlord's figure, and decisions whose figures we haven't been able to check.
