From the tribunal's valuation
Having given consideration to the comparable evidence provided by the parties and of its own expert, general knowledge of rental values in the area, the Tribunal determines that the open market rent for the property in good tenantable condition would be £1,200 per calendar month. … Such a tenancy would normally include white goods, carpets/floorings, curtains/blinds and associated fittings to all be provided by the Landlord. … In this case the property is not let in such condition or with all white goods all supplied so some adjustments to the ‘open market rent’ are necessary. In particular the Tribunal has made the adjustments for lack of modern white goods, dated kitchen fittings, dated bathroom fittings and general wants of repair including damp and mould growth. … The Tribunal therefore decided that the rent at which the subject property might reasonably be expected to be let in the open market by a willing Landlord under the terms of this assured tenancy was £975 per month. … The Tenant made no representation that the starting date for the new rent specified in the Landlord’s notice would cause the Tenant undue hardship. … Accordingly, the Tribunal directed that the new rent of £975 per month should take effect from 1st August 2025 this being the date specified in the notice.
