From the tribunal's valuation
In coming to its decision, the Tribunal had regard to the evidence supplied by the landlord and the tenant. The comparables provided by the parties indicate a rent of £1700 per month as the open market rent for a three bedroom house with ensuite and garage on the outskirts of Rayleigh. However, the subject property is not as well appointed as many properties available on the open market and the open plan layout of the kitchen and conservatory must increase the cost of heating the house which no doubt would be a factor a potential tenant would take into account when assessing the rental value. In its current condition and on the terms of the tenancy the tribunal values the house at £1450 per month.
