What the tribunal said

The tribunal estimated the open market rent in good condition to be £860 per month, accounting for the dated kitchen and bathroom. Due to damp and poor condition at the valuation date, a reduction was applied, resulting in a determined market rent of £400 per month.

The property

The flat has a dated kitchen and bathroom, damaged external render, missing bricks in flank wall, and damp issues affecting the living room despite recent repairs including a damp proof course and new trickle vents.
