What the tribunal said

The Tribunal assessed the market rent of the property in good condition at £1,100 per calendar month based on its specialist local knowledge. A deduction of £150 per month was applied to account for required cosmetic redecoration, replacement carpets, white goods replacement, minor leak repairs, and aged decking, resulting in a determined rent of £950 per calendar month.

The property

The property requires recarpeting throughout, general redecoration, replacement of kitchen white goods, repair of leak damage to decoration, and renewal or repair of an outdoor raised decking area nearing the end of its lifespan.
