What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued the property should be valued at £37.42/m² (£32,000 RV) based on rental evidence from smaller comparable units at the same Rawdon Business Park development, applying a quantum allowance. The Valuation Officer maintained £43.00/m² (£36,750 RV). The tribunal found the comparable evidence from the same development supported by the size matrix analysis did not justify the reduction. The panel determined that at £43.00/m² the subject property was valued at the lowest price per m² within its size band and dismissed the appeal as the appellant failed to produce sufficient evidence to justify the reduction claimed.
