From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal found that the Property is in fair condition. The Tribunal noted that there were trickle vents on the windows and that the boiler had now been repaired. The Tribunal further noted from the photographs supplied by the Tenant that there were no signs of mould or other defects. In any event, those mentioned in the application appear to be historical and part of the usual problems that might arise from time to time in a tenancy with nothing out of the ordinary. It was difficult to assess the condition from the limited photographs supplied however the Tribunal considered that the Property is in reasonable condition and would therefore attract an average price for the area. In the absence of comparable evidence save for the agent’s comments supplied by the Landlord, the Tribunal has relied upon its own expert, general knowledge of rental values in the area. The Tribunal considers that the market rental of the subject Property in reasonable order would be in the region of £850 pcm. This is the rent we would expect the Property to let for in the open market if it was in the same general condition as the photographs show. Market rent £850.00 pcm
