What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued that the unadjusted rate of £30/m² was excessive based on rental and comparable property evidence and proposed a reduction to £27.25/m². The tribunal found that whilst the appellant's comparables were persuasive on some points, the assessments of properties on either side of the subject property carried more weight, and the subject property's own rent of £37.63/m² agreed close to the AVD supported the current valuation. The tribunal determined the burden of proof was on the appellant to demonstrate the RV was unreasonable and was not satisfied by the evidence presented.
