What the tribunal said
The tribunal determined an unadjusted market rent of £575 per calendar month based on local comparables for 2-bedroom terraced houses, reflecting the smaller size and back-to-back layout of the property. A deduction of £25 per month was made for disrepair and lack of modern amenities, arriving at £550 per month. The effective date was set to the decision date to avoid undue hardship for the tenant.
The property
Rotten timber and broken panels on garden decked patio area. Internal walls insulated leaving bare plaster un-redecorated. Loose and defective thermostatic radiator valves and broken pop-up plug in bathroom hand basin. Small room sizes compared to conventional terrace.
