What the tribunal said
The tribunal evaluated comparable market evidence provided by both parties along with its own expertise. Considering the property's good condition, attractive rural location, and tenant-provided white goods and furnishings, the tribunal determined the open-market rent to be £1200 per calendar month.
The property
Property is generally in good condition with upgraded kitchen, bathroom, and electrics, plus landlord-supplied carpets. Minor repairs to roof, lock, and boiler were completed. Unexplained non-serious cracking was noted. Tenant replaced a derelict garden shed. White goods and furnishings provided by tenant.
