From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal determines a market rent for a property by reference to rental values generally and to the rental values for comparable properties in the locality in particular. It does not take into account the present rent and the period of time which that rent has been charged nor does it take into account the percentage increase which the proposed rent represents to the existing rent. … In addition, the legislation makes it clear that the Tribunal cannot take into account the personal circumstances of either the landlord or the tenant. … The Tribunal assesses a rent for the Property as it is on the day of the hearing disregarding any improvements made by the tenant but taking into account the impact on rental value of any disrepair which is not due to a failure of the tenant to comply with the terms of the tenancy. … The tribunal has reviewed the comparables provided by the landlord. It has disregarded comparable 2. – 3 bedroomed barn conversion- in the absence of any more detail and on the basis that it would appear to be a different character of property – being a barn conversion. … The other properties would appear to be superior to the subject property in that they have more bedrooms (properties 3,4,5), have one or more ensuite bathrooms (1,3,4,) contain annexes (5,6). …
