From the tribunal's valuation
Whereas the Tribunal has read all the contents of the bundle (the papers), it limits its discussion and considerations to those points relevant to reach its determination. … The information provided includes a copy of the tenancy agreement, a copy of the property inspection report dated 9 March 2026, a selection of both internal and external photographs, and various comparable lettings evidence. … From the Tribunal’s interpretation of their Reading of the papers, the balance of the description of the accommodation and the features of the property are agreed between the parties. The Tribunal determines the accommodation includes a ‘utility room’ but notes from the photographs provided it is a narrow room which houses the fridge/freezer. … The Tribunal attributes more weight to the comparable lettings in the subject terrace than to the further lettings’ comparables provided which have been drawn down from Rightmove. … That 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 having white goods, double glazing and curtains provided by the landlord.
