Residential Property Tribunal Service

The RPTS is the public body that can decide many Rent and Leasehold disputes. It is the umbrella organisation for the five regional offices called Rent Assessment Panels which provide an independent, fair and accessible tribunal service in England for settling disputes involving private rented and leasehold property. They do this through:

• Rent Assessment Committees:  which determine disputes about fair and market rents
• Leasehold Valuation Tribunals:  which determine disputes involving leasehold property
• Residential Property Tribunals:  which determine certain appeals against denial of the Right to Buy as well as appeals made under the Housing Act 2004.
