What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued that the RV should be reduced to £12,750 based on a lower tone of £67.73/m² derived from the subject property's rent agreed in September 2014, and sought additional end allowances of 5% for the raised entrance and poor insulation. The tribunal found the base rate of £82.88/m² was reasonable as it fitted the tone established by comparable neighbouring properties, but allowed a 2.5% end allowance for the lack of roof insulation that was evidenced in photographs, resulting in an RV of £17,250.
