From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal considered initially the validity of the Landlord’s notice of increase. If the notice was not valid, then the Tribunal would lack jurisdiction to make a rental determination. … The Tenant challenges the validity of the Landlord’s notice on the basis that the notes attached to the Notice incorrectly referred to the tribunal application form as Form 6. … The tribunal noted that the Tenant has evidently had no difficulty in identifying the correct application form. The Tribunal does not regard the notice as invalid on that account. … The Tribunal considered the Tenant’s comparables a.-d. and noted that there was a range of rental values. The web search for LS15 was considered to be less relevant, as the results drew from a wider geographical spread and range of property types. The Tribunal was also conscious of the fact that a rent of £995 had been agreed between the Landlord and Tenant less than a year ago 17. Relying on its own expert, general knowledge of rental values in the area and the comparables provided by the parties, the Tribunal considers that the market rental of the subject Property in good order would be in the order of £995.00 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 comparable properties. … The Tribunal considers the property to be in overall good condition. …
