What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant challenged the rateable value of two interconnected warehouse units that were merged on 1 June 2018, arguing the original valuation of £135,000 (at £39/m²) was excessive. The tribunal found, based on rental evidence from comparable properties in the locality showing a sluggish market with modest growth since 2013, that the appellant's proposed sliding scale approach with a base rate of £35/m² for properties 3,000-5,000m² was reasonable. The tribunal allowed the appeal and reduced the rateable value to £118,000.
