What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued the property was overvalued at £105 per m² with 20% uplift, citing rental analysis of comparable units at lower rates and reference to a neighbouring property valued at £76 per m². The tribunal found the rental evidence from Units 1 and 5, analysed by the Valuation Officer, supported the adopted price per m² and considered the best evidence from these comparable lettings was reliable and not excessive, therefore dismissing the appeal.

Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was Telecoms World Plc, represented.
