In short
The landlord proposed a rent of £1,750 a month, up from £1,300 a month, for a maisonette in GL11. The tribunal determined a rent of £1,400 a month from 25 November 2025. It first valued the property at £2,000 a month in good order, adjusting for poor access and for noise and anti-social behaviour from its town-centre position, then deducted £600 a month for the lack of white goods and carpets, dated kitchen and bathroom fittings, and general disrepair and poor decoration.
The panel relied mainly on its own knowledge of local rents.
