What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellants challenged the rateable values of two office properties in the 2023 Rating List, seeking a reduction from £150/m² to £127.50/m² (later revised to £140/m²). The tribunal found the existing valuations of £150/m² to be reasonable based on comparable rental evidence in the locality. The tribunal placed greatest weight on a new letting agreed on the antecedent valuation date of 1 April 2021 at Concept House, which analysed to £183.34/m², supporting the existing tone. Although other comparables produced varying results, the tribunal was satisfied that the appellants had not discharged the burden of proof that the existing valuations were unreasonable.
