What the tribunal said

The Tribunal set an initial open market rent of £1,400 per month for the property in good tenantable condition. It made deductions totaling £100 per month to reflect tenant-provided carpets, curtains, and white goods (£70), and disrepair to the balcony alongside dated kitchen and bathroom equipment (£30), resulting in a determined rent of £1,300 per month.

The property

The balcony is in disrepair and out of use. The kitchen and bathroom fittings are dated (over 13 years old). Carpets, curtains, and white goods were provided by the tenant.
