What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant, represented by a surveyor from Altus Group, argued the appeal property should be assessed at £22.50/m² (£50,000 RV) rather than the listed £28.10/m² (£62,500 RV), contending it was older than comparable properties on Eastgate Park and should be valued with 1980s-era units at lower rates. The tribunal found the existing assessment was reasonable, noting comparable properties closest in size to the subject had rents analysed to £24.49–£30.10/m² with assessments based on £27.50–£28.75/m², which supported the existing £28.10/m² valuation; the appellant failed to demonstrate the existing assessment was unreasonable.
