From the tribunal's valuation
9 Having carefully considered all of the evidence and our knowledge of rental values in E12, the Tribunal considers that the starting point would be the rent that would be achieved in good condition with modern amenities would be £290 per week for an assured shorthold tenancy agreement. … That, however is the rent that would be achieved if the property was let in good condition with all modern amenities. Based upon the evidence provided to the Tribunal we consider that that the rent should be reduced by £80 which represents a 27% deduction to reflect the dated kitchen and and bathroom fittings, and severe mould growth on the walls. Our deduction reduces the rent to a figure of £210 per week 11. We have not made any deduction to reflect the decorative state of the property because this is the tenants responsibility under the term of the letting. Therefore, we make a further reduction of £20 for this more onerous obligation compared to the shorthold tenancies advertised in the market today.
