What the tribunal said
The Tribunal determined an open market rent of £1,550 per month based on comparable evidence in the area, taking into account the property's small footprint. A deduction of 5% was applied for minor dilapidations, dampness issues, and dated fittings, bringing the determined rent to £1,472.50 per month. The effective date was specified as 13 December 2024 to prevent undue hardship to the tenant.
The property
Isolated patches of internal dampness on lounge and bathroom walls, failed external brickwork and mortar joints on front elevation, poor thermal efficiency leading to condensation, and dated kitchen and bathroom fittings.
