What the tribunal said
The tribunal determined the unadjusted market rent to be £1,750 per month based on local market comparables and expertise. A £25 per month deduction was applied for the ongoing roof leak, setting the open-market rent at £1,725 per month. The tenant's request for a deferred effective date on grounds of undue hardship was rejected due to lack of supporting evidence.
The property
The property suffers from an ongoing roof leak involving a damaged skylight, resulting in a deduction from the unadjusted market rent.
