From the tribunal's valuation
Relying on its own expert general knowledge of rental values in the area, the Tribunal considers that the market rental of the subject Property modernised and in good order would be in the order of £650 pcm (£150.00 per week). This is the rent we would expect the property to let for in the open market if it was in the condition generally expected by prospective tenants in the market, assuming it had full central heating. … From this, the Tribunal has made adjustments in relation to the following: a) the lack of central heating and b) the lack of kitchen cabinets which was undisputed by the landlord. The full valuation is shown below: Starting Rent £150.00 pw Less a) Items given under a) above £15.00 b) Items given under b) above £15.00 £ 30.00 pw Market rent £120.00 pw
