From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal has had regard to all the correspondence and evidence provided by the Parties but is unable to refer to or make observations in respect of each point and document provided to it. The Tribunal would also stress that it has had the benefit of inspecting the Property. … In determining the market rent, the Tribunal has regard to prevailing levels of rent in the general locality and achieved rental values in respect of other properties of comparable accommodation and provision that would be likely to be considered by a prospective tenant. … The current rent, and the period that has passed since that rent was agreed or determined is not relevant. Previous changes in rent are therefore disregarded as the Tribunal is required to assess the rent that would be offered by a prospective tenant who has no knowledge of the existing or previous rents. Similarly, historic rents achieved elsewhere are of limited relevance. … As such, the Tribunal is unable to have any regard to the level of previous increases in rent as it is only concerned with market rent levels as at the effective date specified for the commencement of the new rent of 11 June 2025. …
