From the tribunal's valuation
Neither term is recognised, nor form a relevant consideration for the Tribunal in determining a market rent under Section 14 of the Act. The Tribunal makes no reference to them. … This is the rent we would expect the Property to let for in the open market if it was in the same condition as comparable properties including landlord’s white goods carpets and curtains. 18 From the representations made, the Tribunal found that there were significant, persistent and developing defects to the windows and external door to the Property causing damp, mould and rot to the frames affecting their efficacy, sufficient to affect the rent. For this reason the Tribunal makes a small deduction of £100 from the starting rent reducing this to £2400 pcm.
