From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal is tasked with determining the current market rent of the property and its rent valuation is not subject to regulatory limits or the increases permitted by contract. However the Tribunal’s determination of the rent payable cannot be at a higher figure than the rent proposed by the Landlord in its notice of increase. … There is no evidence of disrepair at the Property. The statutory framework for the Tribunal’s assessment of market rent and rent payable does not allow for any consideration of equality or disability rights, but only allows the Tribunal to take into account any financial hardship which may be proved by the Tenant. … Relying on its own expert, general knowledge of open market rental values in the immediate area the Tribunal considers that the market rental of the subject Property would be in the region of £250 to £255 per week. This is the rent we would expect the property to let for in the open market as a standard tenancy without luxury features in the building. … Since the open market rent is higher than the rent proposed by the Landlord, the proposed rent, which has been calculated in accordance with the tenancy agreement, is the rent payable. Market rent £250 pw Rent payable £170.21 pw
