What the tribunal said

The tribunal assessed the market rent at £500 per month taking into account property condition and expert knowledge of the area. Payment at the new rate was ordered to take effect from 30 August 2024 rather than the proposed date to prevent undue hardship to the tenant.

The property

Evidence of dampness to walls and floor near the kitchen, possibly caused by a leak under the sink, along with evidence of vermin infestation.
