What the tribunal said
The tribunal found the section 13 notice valid despite omitting a date in paragraph 3 as it caused no prejudice. Starting from an unadjusted market rent of £775 per month based on local comparables, deductions of £10 for general condition and £70 for ongoing rat infestation in the building's roof void were applied, resulting in a market rent of £695 per month.
The property
Reasonable decorative order with some peeling paint on the bathroom ceiling. Persistent rat infestation in the roof void of the communal parts.
