What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant sought a reduction in rateable value for two office floors from £265/m² to £225/m² based on comparable properties where the Valuation Officer had agreed lower rates. The tribunal analysed the rental evidence and comparable properties, finding that whilst the comparable properties presented by the appellant had lower assessed rates, they differed materially in location, specification, size and condition from the subject properties. The tribunal gave greatest weight to rental evidence at Minton Place and the assessments of Assurant House and 2-4 Victoria Street, which supported the current unadjusted rate of £265/m² as fair and reasonable.
