What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellants argued for reduced rateable values based on new open market lettings agreed shortly after the antecedent valuation date at £30,000 per annum for each property. The tribunal found the rental evidence on the subject properties to be strong and most reliable, attaching significant weight to the lettings agreed on 12 April 2021. The tribunal rejected the Valuation Officer's argument that the rents had been artificially depressed due to the tenants' financial struggles, noting there was no supporting evidence for this claim. The tribunal determined the tone should be £155/m2 to reflect the rental evidence, allowing both appeals.
