 State of Repair and Redevelopment Prospect
"Wexler v Playle (VO) [1960] 1 QB 217, [1960] 1 All ER 338, 5 RRC 359, CA"
The Court of Appeal held that the Lands Tribunal was correct in ignoring defects in a flat which were readily repairable, in arriving at the gross value of the flat under s 2(2) of the Valuation for Rating Act, 1953.The landlord's obligation to repair included the obligation to put the flat into repair and the defects being remediable were such that the hypothetical tenant would require him to put them right.
