What the tribunal said
The tribunal assessed the modernised market rent at £1,900 per month based on comparable evidence and local knowledge. A 13% deduction (£247) was made to reflect night storage heaters, damp, and the antiquated bathroom, producing a final determined rent of £1,653 per month.

Visible condensation and damp issues, night storage heaters instead of central heating, and an antiquated kitchen and bathroom.
