What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellants argued the subject warehouse properties near Heathrow Airport were overvalued at £130 psm in the 2017 rating list, proposing £100 psm while the Valuation Officer revised to £110 psm. The tribunal found the original £130 psm was unreasonable, accepting the Valuation Officer's revised valuation of £110 psm based on rental evidence from Heathrow Logistics Park and comparable properties, prior tribunal decisions on similar properties on the same business park, and the location disadvantages compared to premium cargo terminal-adjacent properties.

Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was Pop Air Ltd and Expeditors International (UK) Limited, represented.
