What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellants argued that the unadjusted rates of £40/m² and £45/m² were excessive, relying mainly on a 2022 rent of £70,000 pa on the first property which analysed to £35.42/m². The VO relied on a broader range of comparable evidence including rents from other properties in the locality, some analysed at significantly higher rates (£43.19/m² to £65.81/m²). The tribunal found the 2022 rent appeared to be an outlier lacking full details, and that the wider evidence supported the current valuations.
