What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant contended that a 10% end allowance should be applied to account for poor quality and lack of insulation at the warehouse. The tribunal found that comparable properties at the same Manchester International Freight Terminal were similarly uninsulated, and that any disadvantages would be reflected in the rental evidence. The tribunal concluded that allowing an end allowance would result in an RV lower than the actual rent, and dismissed the appeal, confirming the RV of £126,000.
