From the tribunal's valuation
Relying on its own expert, general knowledge of rental values in the area, and the comparables provided by the parties, the Tribunal considers that the market rental of the subject Property would be in the order of £1,000 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. … The comparable properties provided by the Tenant appeared to show a market rent of about £1,000 pcm. It is difficult to assess the general condition of the subject Property and the Tenant’s comparables merely from the photographs supplied however there was no evidence of any significant disrepair. The Landlord had provided a document showing that some repairs had been carried out routinely and there had been a new boiler in 2021. The first two comparables provided by the Landlord were being advertised at £1,050 pcm but were not close to the subject Property. The third comparable was £1,175 pcm which was closer to the subject Property however this seemed to be in better condition. The property at Holden Street was close to the station which may justify a higher rent of £1,200 pcm. … The two higher value properties appeared to be inconsistent with the general range of values between £950 and £1,050 pcm. …
