What the tribunal said
The tribunal assessed the unadjusted market rent at £2,375 per month based on comparable evidence and local expertise. A deduction of £12 per month was made to reflect snagging issues, water stain damage, drainage issues, and an ill-fitting patio door, resulting in a determined rent of £2,363 per month. The tribunal found no grounds for undue hardship to delay the effective date.

The property suffered from minor defects including water stain damage, drainage issues, an ill-fitting patio door, leftover tape, and general snagging issues.
