From the tribunal's valuation
Section 14 of the Housing Act 1988 requires the Tribunal to determine the rent at which the Property might reasonably be expected to be let on the open market by a willing landlord under an assured tenancy on the same terms as the actual tenancy, disregarding the matters set out in section 14(2). The task of the Tribunal is therefore to value the Property as it stands, on the terms of the tenancy actually granted, and not to assess whether the increase is affordable or in line with inflation. … The Tribunal has given limited weight to the Office for National Statistics material relied upon by the Tenant. That publication covers the whole of the SW11 postcode district, which contains a very wide range of stock of differing age, size, specification and location, and it makes no adjustment for those differences. … The figures within it are advertised asking rents rather than achieved rents, several of the properties were still being marketed at the date of the report, and asking rents are not a reliable guide to the level at which lettings are concluded. … The signed tenancy agreements produced by the Landlord are the most useful evidence before the Tribunal. …
