What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant challenged the 2017 rating list valuation of £141,000 (£750/m²), proposing a reduction to £131,000 (£700/m²), arguing the tone was unreasonable and citing comparable reductions at the neighbouring building 18 Savile Row. The tribunal found that while the subject property's own lease rent at £672/m² was lower, the strongest evidence was the basket of rents within the same building close to the antecedent valuation date, including first floor rents at £758/m² and £1,012/m², which supported the £750/m² tone as reasonable and not excessive.
