From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal has carefully considered the written submissions provided by both parties, the oral submissions and evidence given by the Landlord and Tenant at the hearing, and their own observations from the inspection. … The Tribunal has assessed the rent on the basis of an assured tenancy on a three bedroom Property, assuming the ground floor offers a living room, additional reception room, kitchen, plus the additional utility and bathroom and rear dining room. … The Tribunal noted that the Property is being used as a HMO, which will have contributed the general level of wear and tear at the Property given the number of people in occupation. The Tenant had not reported recent issues with the dining room radiator and sink to the Landlord. … The maintenance of the garden is the Tenant’s responsibility under the terms of the Tenancy Agreement. The general condition of the garden has not been taken into account in arriving at the appropriate rent for the Property. … The Tenant’s comparable at Ayrton House is a flat in a different part of Wembley, over a mile from the Property. … Having consideration of the evidence submitted by the parties and our own expert, general knowledge of rental values in the area, we consider that the open market rent for the Property in good and tenantable condition would be in the region of £2,500 per calendar month. …
