From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal had regard to the comparable transaction rental evidence supplied by the landlord. They note that the rental evidence was for marketed property rather than let dwellings. … The Tribunal applied their own knowledge and experience of rental levels in and around Hornsey, including similar flats in nearby properties. … After careful consideration of the evidence submitted the Tribunal decided the comparable evidence submitted by the landlord broadly represented the upper limits of marketed rents for similar property in the locality. … It was their opinion that if the subject flat was in the same condition as those available to let on the open market the rental value would be £400 per week. … A 10% deduction was made to reflect the benefit of the carpets, curtains, white goods and soft furnishings provided by the tenant. … The property has some visible defects which are material to the rent chargeable and a deduction of 2.5% was made to reflect rot to windows, poor thermal insulation and minor damage to plasterwork. … An overall deduction of 12.5% was made to the market rent, giving a valuation of £350 per week. … The Tribunal accordingly determined that a weekly rent of £350 per week is appropriate for this dwelling in present condition but excluding any improvements made by the tenant.
