What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought to reduce the Zone A price per m² from £450 to £340, relying on a nearby Valuation Tribunal decision for 341-343 Roman Road where the RV had been reduced. The tribunal found that the earlier decision contained no explicit reference to a Zone A price of £340 per m², the double-unit property was not directly comparable, and the rental evidence supporting the existing tone of £450 per m² across multiple comparable properties on Roman Road was sufficiently detailed and consistent. The appeals were dismissed.

Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was Look Property Services Limited, represented.
