From the tribunal's valuation
The Tribunal found that the Landlord’s comparable evidence was highly relevant. The fact that many comparable properties in the immediate vicinity are in the ownership of the same Landlord does not reduce the weight attached to the comparable evidence. … 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 in good order would be in the order of £1,195.00 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. As such, no adjustments are warranted and the market rent is determined as below. Market rent £1,195.00 pcm
