From the tribunal's valuation
Relying on its own expert, general knowledge of rental values in the area, the Tribunal considers that in good order the market rent for the Property would be £1,650 pcm. … The Tribunal considered the comparable evidence from both parties. The properties at Linmere Walk were quite far away from the subject Property and on an estate where there was better road access. There were other properties such as Harebell Gardens which are also further out and seem to be larger properties, for example with double frontages. … In the view of the Tribunal the subject Property can still be regarded as relatively new at around five years old and thee Tribunal did not consider that there is likely to be a significant differential in market rental values. However, many of the comparables were in different areas or larger properties. The Tribunal’s view is therefore that the appropriate market rent for the subject Property is £1,650 pcm. Market rent £1,650 pcm
