From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal has considered all of the information provided by the landlord and the Tenant in reaching their decision. … Both the Tenant and the Landlord have failed to supply actual let comparables and have instead provided properties that are available for let, which in reality do not make them suitable comparables. … The Tribunal would note that whilst the Landlord makes strong submission as to why the properties the Tenant has provided are not comparable. The Landlord then goes ahead and submits a property that the Tenant also considers comparable, and it is therefore accepted by the parties that ArdEnfield Close is good property for the Tribunal to analyse and is suitably comparable to the subject property. … As the Tenant rightly goes on to state following Landlord seeking to use the property as a comparable the ArdEnfield Close in question has subsequently been reduced quite substantially to an asking rent of £1,890 pcm and remains available for let. … The other property submitted by the landlord is also on Sergeants Lane and is also a detached 4 bedroom 2 bathroom property. This is clearly the most comparable to the subject property of any of the properties provided by either Landlord or Tenant. …
