What the tribunal said

The tribunal evaluated market evidence submitted by both parties. The landlord's evidence was considered inadequate as it comprised asking rents rather than completed lettings. The tribunal accepted the tenant's evidence and determined that the open market rent remained £1360 per calendar month.

The property

Modern three-bedroom semi-detached house with double glazing, two-zone central heating with Baxi Assure combi boiler, living room, kitchen, ground floor WC, first floor bathroom, carpet and wood flooring, front and rear gardens, and off-street parking. No landlord-provided furniture.
