From the tribunal's valuation
Having consideration of our own expert, general knowledge of rental values in the area, we consider that the open market rent for the property in the condition and with the amenities the market would expected to be in the region of £500 per week. From this level of rent we have made adjustments in relation to: a. Tenant’s improvements – flooring, curtains, carpets, white goods; b. Dated kitchen and lack of floor coverings noted at inspection; c. Condition - damp to the property (including damp caused by external disrepair), badly cracked and broken sills allowing water penetration, poor brickwork with cracks and holes allowing damp, no apparent DPC and a leaking downpipe. … The full valuation is shown below: PCW AST Market rent £500 Less tenant’s improvements 15% -£75 Less 5% for dated kitchen and lack of floor coverings 5% -£25 Less condition 50% -£250 £150
