From the tribunal's valuation
There was an indication that the Tenant i) stopped paying rent in April 2026 and ii) later vacated the property. But this was not a relevant consideration to the Tribunal. … Relying on its own expertise and general knowledge of rental values in the area, and the images provided by the Tenant, the Tribunal considers that the market rental of the subject property modernised and in good order would be in the order of £1,300 pcm. This is the rent we would expect the property to let for in the open market if it was in the same general condition as the comparable properties including having white goods and curtains provided by the landlord. … From this level of rent, the Tribunal has made adjustments in relation to the following: a. … Improvements made by the Tenants 25. The full valuation is shown below: Starting Rent £1,300 pcm Less a) Items given under a) above £100 b) Items given under b) above £50 Subtotal £150 Market rent £1,150
