What the tribunal said

The tribunal determined that the open market rent in good condition with white goods, carpets, and curtains provided by the landlord would be £1,000 per month. A £50 per month deduction was made to reflect that the tenant provided white goods (except the oven/hob) and curtains, resulting in a fair market rent of £950 per month.

The property

Kitchen and bathroom fittings are approximately 11 years old and dated. Some double-glazed window seals are defective resulting in misting. Tenant provided white goods (except oven and hob) and curtains.
