From the tribunal's valuation
We are assessing a rent for a two bedroom flat on the first floor of a purpose built block with no garden. There is a combined kitchen and living room. We have had regard to the comparable evidence proved by the Landlord and our own expert knowledge of rental values in the area, we consider that the open market rent for the property in good tenantable condition would be in the region of £400 per week. … However, the flat was let furnished more than 10 years ago. An inventory of the furniture, furnishings and white goods which were provided at the commencement of the tenancy are annexed to the tenancy. These have not been renewed and are worn and in a tired condition. … The comparables are all modern lettings with high quality kitchens and bathrooms, with curtains and carpets which are new or relatively new. We are satisfied that a significant reduction needs to be made to reflect the condition of the subject flat and the block in which it is situated. We make a reduction of 25% (£100) and compute a market rent of £300 per week.
