From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal considers the comparables provided by the Landlord are relevant to this matter and notes the difference in valuation between the rents for those properties that have been refurbished and those that have not. … The Tenant’s references to the rent being paid for Council properties cannot be taken into consideration as these are not open market rents, 19. The Tribunal makes no adjustment for the investment the Landlord has made in respect of the Property. Most of the items contained in the schedule are items of repair for which the Landlord is responsible pursuant to section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985. … Relying on its own expert, general knowledge of rental values in the area, and the comparables provided by the Landlord, the Tribunal considers that the market rental of the subject Property modernised and in good order would be in the order of £1,150 per calendar month (£530.77 per fortnight). … From this level of rent, the Tribunal has made adjustments in relation to the following: a) furnishings, including white goods, carpets and curtains not being included b) improvements and fittings provided by the Tenant as set out in paragraph 13 above. The full valuation is shown below: Starting Rent £530.77 per fortnight Less a) Items given under a) above £54.00 b) Items given under b) above £110.00 £164.00 Market rent £366.77 per fortnight 12. …
