What the tribunal said

The Tribunal considered comparable evidence supplied by both parties and applied its own expert knowledge of local rental values. It determined the market rent for the property in good order to be £1,650 per month. The Tenant's request to delay the effective date on grounds of undue hardship was refused as hardship was not demonstrated.

The property

The property is approximately five years old, kept in very good condition, with central heating via a boiler and uPVC windows.
