Agent-backed rent evidence
Support your Section 13 rent increase with a market rent comparables report.
For £60, letting agents review local rental evidence and prepare a practical rent recommendation before you serve your Form 4A notice.
Why this matters
The tribunal looks at open market rent, not what the landlord wants.
If your tenant challenges the increase, the key question is whether the proposed rent is reasonable compared with similar properties on the open market.
- Without evidenceYou are relying on guesswork and hope.
- With evidenceYou can show the increase is based on local market data.

What you get
Everything needed to make the rent figure more defensible.
Comparable listings
Relevant rental properties are reviewed to help establish a sensible open market rent.
Agent recommendation
You receive a practical suggested rent, balancing market level, tenant reaction and challenge risk.
Tenant explanation pack
A clear explanation to help the tenant understand why the increase is being proposed.
Once ordered, your report is prepared by letting agents using current market data and sent to you by email within up to two working days.
Fair but commercial
Small evidence-based increases are easier to explain than sudden jumps.
Many landlords avoid rent increases because they want to be fair. The problem is that holding rent artificially low for years can create a much larger increase later.
It can also leave less money available for maintenance, weaken the property’s yield and reduce capital value if the property is sold based on poor rental return.
The practical aim
Set a rent that is commercially sensible, easier to justify and supported by evidence before the notice is served.
Create the notice for free. Add market evidence before you serve.
Start the free notice process and choose the £60 comparables report if you want agent-backed support for the proposed rent.
