What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant challenged the 2017 compiled list RV of £72,000 proposing £48,000 based on an average of four comparable local pubs' valuations, arguing overtrading. The Valuation Officer reduced the entry to £65,500 using Fair Maintainable Turnover methodology with FMT of £525,000 (wet) and £200,000 (dry), reflecting actual trade figures. The tribunal found the VO's approach properly applied the Approved Guide for valuation of public houses, the FMT was close to verified actual trading, and the appellant provided no evidence to support claims of overtrading. The tribunal dismissed the appeal.
