What the tribunal said
The tribunal estimated that the market rent for the property in good modern condition would be £750 per month. An overall deduction of 17.5% was made to account for the property's dated condition, wear and tear, and minor repair issues, bringing the fair market rent to £618.75 per month. The tenant's request to delay the effective date due to hardship was rejected as insufficient evidence of financial hardship was submitted.
The property
The property is in a dated and tired condition. Features include dated original single-glazed sash windows with cracked mastic, a dated kitchen with minor repairs needed (broken drawer and missing tiles), an obsolete/dated bathroom suite, worn carpets, and localized damp blotches.
