What the tribunal said
The tribunal set an initial unadjusted open market rent of £660 per week. Deductions totalling 70% were made to account for lack of white goods and curtains (10%), lack of double glazing (10%), lack of central heating (10%), tenant-provided kitchen (10%), and extensive disrepair including damp, mould, wood rot, and poor external doors (30%), resulting in a determined market rent of £198 per week.
The property
The house is in a state of substantial disrepair. There is no central heating and no double glazing. There is water ingress causing damp and mould, ceiling failure in the second bedroom, rotted wooden external doors and window frames, and damp in the living area.
