What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellants sought to reduce the unit price from £85/m² to £75/m² across three warehouse properties. The tribunal examined rental evidence from the antecedent valuation date and comparable property assessments, finding that £85/m² was supportive of the evidence base, including comparable rents at £89.98/m² and £84.99/m², and a confirmed tribunal assessment at the same rate. Two appeals were dismissed as the current assessments remained reasonable; one appeal was allowed in part due to partial heating adjustments reducing the RV from £108,000 to £107,000.

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