What the tribunal said
The Tribunal assessed the market rent for the property in good, modernised condition at £825 per month. An adjustment of £25 per month was made for worn carpets, damaged kitchen lino, missing edging strips, and an EPC rating of D, resulting in a market rent of £800 per month. The effective date was deferred to 20 August 2026 to prevent undue hardship to the tenant.

Hallway laminate flooring is damaged and uneven with missing edging strips. Living room carpet is worn and kitchen lino is damaged. The flat is north-facing, cold, and has an EPC rating of D.
