What the tribunal said
The Tribunal established an unadjusted market rent of £900 per month based on local comparables. Deductions totalling £75 per month were made to reflect the disrepair, the tenant's provision of white goods, and the tenant's internal decorating liability, resulting in a final determined rent of £825 per month.
The property
Outstanding repairs noted include a cracked front UPVC door, two missing roof tiles, a leak under the bath causing water damage to the dining room ceiling and WC, threadbare carpets exposing gripper rods, and gaps around lounge and dining room windows causing draughts.
