What the tribunal said

The tribunal determined an open market rent of £2,070 per month based on local rental evidence and general knowledge, adjusting for the property's location near a busy junction and its current condition including water leak damage, mould, and disrepair.

The property

Property in fair condition externally but with sagging front gutter, weeds in rear gutter, fallen fence panel, and collapsed shed roof. Internally, ceiling damaged from leaks in lounge and kitchen, failed seals to double glazed windows, leaking sink, mould in kitchen cupboard and bedrooms, and bath surface in poor condition.
