What the tribunal said
The tribunal determined the open market rent using its local market knowledge and comparable evidence for similar modern houses. It concluded that the property lacked a garage and made no separate adjustment for this. The market rent was set at 1630 per month, matching the landlord's proposed rent.
The property
Modern end-terraced house built around 2020 over three levels, in good order. Landlord provided carpets, blinds, and white goods, but no furniture. Tenants paved part of the rear garden and planted the front garden at their own expense.
