What the tribunal said

The tribunal assessed the open market rent at £1,505 per month using its expertise and comparable rental evidence from the same development. Reported defects did not justify a reduction, and no evidence of undue hardship was provided to delay the effective date.

The property

Tenant reported historical damp, a broken seal on the cooker, an unlevel worktop, and damage to the dishwasher door. The tribunal found insufficient evidence of continuing damp affecting rental value and noted other alleged issues were minor.
