From the tribunal's reasons on the amount
There is no deduction for utilities. … The relevant factors are set out at A9-11. … The evidence was that the Respondent had another bungalow available to rent and she could rent out that other bungalow. She was the landlord of several properties which she rented out and she falls within the definition of a professional landlord. It was apparent from the Respondent’s submissions and evidence that she did not have systems in place to keep herself informed of obligations or changes to regulations. The offence went on from 2023 to some time in 2025, after May, which was over 2 years. The Respondent had been told by the tenant that a licence was required (A32) but she said that she did not need to have a licence. There were many disrepair issues: leaking roof, broken window, garden door, boiler, broken cooker. The Applicant’s evidence was that she was the one who had to organise repairs and pay for those repairs. The Respondent also failed to protect the deposit (A209). The Respondent recognised that she had substantially failed in her duties. She had served several invalid s.21 notices (A22). She had neglected the Applicant’s right to peaceful occupation and made visits with little or no notice and several times entered the Property without permission. She had engaged in abusive and xenophobic messages (A72) and caused fear and distress so that it was reported to the police. …
