What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant argued that four industrial properties in Luton should be reduced from £85/m² to £80/m², relying on rental evidence from other properties including Unit 9F Leagrave Road (£70.21/m²) and Unit 8 Barratt Industrial Park (reduced to £80/m²). The tribunal found that the comparable evidence either related to different valuation schemes, different property categories, or was insufficiently comparable, and was satisfied that £85/m² remained reasonable for the subject properties based on stronger comparable evidence from properties within the same scheme.
