What the tribunal said
The tribunal determined a market rent of £1,000 per month based on comparable local evidence and its expert knowledge, assuming the property was in good condition with carpets provided. Although the tenants claimed financial hardship, they provided no documentary evidence, so the tribunal directed that the new rent take effect from the date specified in the landlord's notice.
The property
The property has double glazing, gas central heating, carpets, and lino. The tenants reported outstanding maintenance jobs, but the tribunal made no rental deduction as no evidence was provided to quantify their impact.
