From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal is required to determine the rent at which the subject property might reasonably be expected to be let in the open market by a willing Landlord under an assured tenancy. The personal circumstances of the Tenant are not relevant to this issue. … Having carefully considered the representations from the parties and associated correspondence and using its own judgement and knowledge of rental values in SalisBury and south Wiltshire the Tribunal decided that the market rent for the subject property if let today in a condition that was usual for such an open market letting would be £875 per month. … The Tribunal decides that it should reflect the lack of a party wall in the attic which might be viewed as a security issue and reduces the rent by £20 per month to reflect this. … In addition, the Tribunal needs to reflect the Tenant’s provision of white goods and the minor repair issues referred to in the papers. … The Tenant made no representation that the starting date for the new rent specified in the Landlord’s notice would cause the Tenant undue
