What the tribunal said

The tribunal assessed the market rent for the property in good condition at £1,100 per month. Deductions of £100 per month were made to reflect water ingress issues, reduced usable garden space due to temporary safety fencing, and minor tenant-undertaken maintenance works over the years.

The property

Minor internal scuffs and carpet marks. Water ingress in utility room and one annex room. Garden currently partially fenced off, reducing usable area temporarily.
