From the tribunal's valuation
In coming to its decision, the Tribunal had regard to the evidence supplied by both the landlord and the tenant. The comparables were superior in terms of modernisation to the subject premises and generally benefited from white goods, floor coverings and blinds or curtains. The common parts of the block were spartan. … The Tribunal concluded that the rent at which the property might reasonably be expected to be let on the open market would be £170 per week. The open market assumes that the flat is in the condition usually found in open market lettings. However, in this instance the kitchen and bathroom are dated, there are significant areas of mould and the common parts are very basic. The carpets, curtains and white goods had been provided by the tenant. The Tribunal determined that a deduction of £25 should be made from the weekly open market rent to reflect these matters.
