What the tribunal said

The tribunal set an initial open-market rent of £1,900 per month based on local comparables. It deducted approximately 2.5% for tenant-provided floor coverings and white goods (washing machine and fridge), arriving at £1,850 per month. The tenant's request to delay the effective date on grounds of undue hardship was rejected due to lack of supporting evidence.

The property

Tenant installed laminate flooring throughout and provided their own washing machine and fridge. Landlord provided only the cooker.
