What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant challenged the rateable value of two storage units on the basis of rental evidence and comparable properties. The tribunal found that whilst the rents passing on the subject properties were agreed after the antecedent valuation date, they provided a starting point, and when considered alongside comparable rental evidence from nearby properties, demonstrated that the original assessments were excessive. The tribunal adopted a unitary assessed rate of £6.50 per m², resulting in a rateable value of £10,500 for each unit.
