Before ranking, every listing is screened out if it is a room in a shared house (fails the rent-per-bed check against the local one-bed distribution), a short-let or serviced listing (nightly-rate economics), or a per-bed price outlier. For this search, no comparables required exclusion — all 40 in-band lettings passed. When exclusions do occur, they are shown in full, never hidden.
The market estimate of £1,194 pcm is the weighted median of the comparables above: let-agreed lettings are weighted above still-advertised ones (achieved evidence beats asking prices) and nearer properties above farther ones. The estimate also draws 14% from the CH2 district benchmark — a shrinkage toward the wider-area two-bed level that stabilises the figure. The evidence-supported range of £1,101–£1,300 is the weighted 25th–75th percentile. The proposed rent of £1,175 sits just below the estimate and inside this range — deliberately defensible: a tribunal can set the open-market rent lower than proposed, never higher.
Most tribunal references are decided on the papers: no hearing, no advocacy — just the evidence each side submits. The tribunal asks one question: what would this property let for on the open market today?
That is exactly what page 2 answers. A proposed rent inside the evidence-supported range, backed by real let-agreed comparables with rents and distances, is very hard to argue down. A round number with no evidence behind it is not. Submit this pack as your representation, keep the original notice, and don't negotiate outside the process while a reference is live.
Comparables are real let-agreed and advertised lettings within 800 m of the subject, filtered to like-for-like bedroom count and property type, with shared-house and short-let listings screened out (see page 2). Estimate = weighted median with 14% shrinkage to the CH2 district benchmark; range = weighted 25th–75th percentile. Comparables are weighted by let-agreed status, distance and property type — rents are not otherwise adjusted or re-indexed.

Real comparables, illustrative subject. The comparable lettings, distances, rents and the market estimate in this pack are real, drawn from Streetwise's market data for the CH2 area (snapshot 11 July 2026). The subject property and its current and proposed rents are illustrative, shown to demonstrate the format — this pack is not tied to a live rent review.
