2411 Coventry Rd, Sheldon, Birmingham, B26 3PP
Condition: modernised and in good order
Evidence considered
- Landlord provided summary details of 7 semi-detached houses in the area with rents ranging from £1,200 pcm to £1,375 pcm
Tenant submitted evidence: no. Landlord submitted evidence: yes.
Tribunal's reasoning
The Tribunal considered comparable rental values and determined that the property would rent for approximately £1,100 pcm due to its location fronting a busy main road (A45). The final market rent was set at £1,075 pcm after deducting £25 pcm for the tenant's replacement cooker. No allowance was made for the garden shed replacement by the tenants. No undue hardship was claimed or considered.
