From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal is not persuaded that the Landlord’s methodology is entirely correct. There are numerous matters which can impact on the value of a property such as location, condition and quality of fittings although it does agree with the Landlord that such an exercise in attributing a rental value to floor area can be useful in determining a general trend in value. … Relying on its own expert, general knowledge of rental values in the area, and the comparables provided by the Landlord, the Tribunal considers that the market rental of the subject Property modernised and in good order would be in the order of £2,000.00 pcm. This is the rent we would expect the property to let for in the open market if it was in the same general condition as the comparable properties including having white goods and curtains provided by the landlord. … The full valuation is shown below: Starting Rent £2,000.00 pcm Less a) Items given under a) above £125.00 b) Items given under b) above £100.00 c) Items given under c) above £180.00 d) Items given under d) above £100.00 £505.00 pcm Market rent £1,495.00 pcm
