From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal considers that the open market rent for the property if it were in good marketable condition with reasonably modern kitchen and bathroom, modern services, carpets and curtains and white goods supplied by the landlord would be £1,5o0 per month. … From this level of rent we have made adjustments in relation to: the damp and mould to the walls caused by a previous water leak, dated kitchen and sanitary fittings and dated electric storage heaters which equates to approximately 13% (£175.00) It should be noted that this figure cannot be a simple arithmetical calculation and is not based upon capital costs but is the Tribunal’s estimate of the amount by which the rent would need to be reduced to attract a tenant.
