From the tribunal's valuation
In the first instance the Tribunal determined what rent the landlord could reasonably be expected to obtain for the subject property in the open market if it were let on the determination date in the condition that is considered usual for such an open market letting. The Tribunal considered the value of the property in light of its local knowledge and experience with regard to the submissions of the Landlord and Tenant. … Having consideration of the evidence proved by the parties and of our own expert, general knowledge of rental values in the area, we consider that the open market rent for the subject property in good tenantable condition would be in the region of £2,000 per calendar month. … The Tribunal determines a rent of £1,500 per calendar month. … The Tribunal directs the new rent of £1,500 to take effect on 6 November 2025. The Tribunal was satisfied that a starting date of that specified in the Landlord’s notice would cause the tenant undue hardship.
