I take photos when I move in but lose them by the time I move out. I’m genuinely really surprised it’s not mostly landlords cleaning house. They must have really been in the wrong.
Oh don’t get me wrong, there’s loads of landlords winning, but generally this seems to be where the landlord is the one that initiated the proceedings. When the tenant initiated, they seem to win.
This isn’t surprising, you wouldn’t take someone to the tribunal unless they were in the wrong, so you’d expect the applicant to win most of the time. And this doesn’t prove whether, for example, the tribunal is more likely to side with the landlord if they start the proceedings - we can’t really work that out because the data is in a really poor format. I guess if you had hours of free time you would hand-transcribe the data to work it out, but I don’t have that kind of time or patience.
