What the tribunal said
The tenant challenged the rent increase based on a reduction in house manager services. Neither party submitted market comparable evidence. The tribunal applied its expert knowledge to determine that open-market rent for the property in its current state was £800 per calendar month.
The property
No condition issues were raised by the tenant. The property was evaluated as being in a condition consistent with its age and type.
