What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought a 2.5% reduction (RV £21,500) to reflect the isolated location of the warehouse unit at the end of a cul-de-sac on the industrial estate. The tribunal found that rental evidence from comparable properties on the same estate supported the adopted price per m², and no evidence demonstrated that the location would affect rental levels. The appeal was dismissed and RV £22,750 confirmed.
