What the tribunal said
The tribunal found that a 4-bedroom terraced house in this location in good condition would achieve a market rent of £800 per month. A deduction of £100 per month was allowed to reflect the property's condition and the need for refurbishment and updating, resulting in a determined market rent of £700 per month.
The property
The property is in reasonable condition overall but has minor disrepair and neglect, including holes around radiator pipes and damage to fixtures and decoration. The kitchen and bathroom are in generally good condition but would benefit from updating and refurbishment. The tenant has maintained and decorated the property.
