Resetting rent outside RPZ

If a tenant leaves a property that is OUTSIDE the RPZ areas can the landlord reset to the market rate for a new tenant or do they have to wait until the two years are up since the last rent review? e.g Rent set October 2023, and now lagging the market rate for the area. Tenant vacated. Landlord wants to advertise the property ideally at a new rate. Does the landlord need to wait till Oct 2025 to set a new rent, or can they do it now? Thanks.

I suppose the issue is that the RTB documents say that you can only review the rent every two years. But they don't clarify if that is every two years within a single tenancy - and the clock is reset when a new tenancy starts, or whether it relates to the property ie the old clock keeps ticking when the new tenancy starts.
