From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal first considered whether it felt able to reasonably and fairly decide this case based on the papers submitted only with no oral hearing. Having read and considered the papers it decided that it could do so. … 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 parties 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 Aldershot, 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 £1,150 per month. Rents for residential property are normally expressed monthly. … However, the property is not let in a condition that would command such an open market rent so that several adjustments to this open market rent should be made to reflect this including the poor insulation qualities as indicated by the EPC. Using it’s experience the Tribunal decided that the following adjustments should be made to this full open market rent, totalling £340 per month as follows. …
