From the tribunal's valuation
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. … It is important to stress that the valuation exercise assumes that the Property is “vacant and to let” such that the occupation of the Property by the Tenant is to be disregarded. As such, whilst the Tribunal notes the Tenant’s assertions in respect of the rent potentially being different on the assumption of a renewal comparative to a new letting the actual position is that the rent is assessed as if a new lease was being granted. It is therefore immaterial to the valuation exercise that the Tenant is remaining in occupation. … 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. … The legislation requires the Tribunal to have regard to market demand assuming that the landlord is willing. …
