What the tribunal said

The tribunal assessed the market rent for the property in fully modernised condition at £1,550 per month. An adjustment of £50 per month was deducted to reflect an incomplete kitchen and bathroom, resulting in a determined market rent of £1,500 per month. The effective date remained as proposed in the notice as the determined rent matched the tenant's own valuation and did not cause undue hardship.

The property

Incomplete kitchen and bathroom, and a defective electrical socket in the kitchen.
