What the tribunal said

The tribunal considered the landlord's notice validly served. Based on comparable market evidence and local expert knowledge, the unadjusted market rent was assessed at £1,100 per month. Deductions of £75 per month for condition issues and £25 per month for restricted outdoor storage were applied, resulting in a determined market rent of £1,000 per month. No undue hardship was proven to defer the effective date.

The property

The property features dated kitchen and bathroom facilities, ceiling damage on the ground floor from a leak, defective window seals, a kitchen window nailed closed, unlocked bedroom windows, gate issues, mould on windows, alleged rodent issues, and an outdoor storage cupboard occupied by landlord items.
