What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant challenged the 2017 Rating List RV of £239,000 (£64.49/m²) on the grounds that it was too high. The appellant's expert argued comparable properties showed a tone of £45/m² to £47.50/m², but the tribunal found the appellant's comparable assessments were not reliable due to different VO schemes and locations. However, the tribunal adopted a tone of £63.00/m² based on comparable units within the Trinity Trade Centre itself and adjustments required for the subject property's lease date and post-AVD rent review, resulting in a tribunal RV of £235,000 - a reduction of £4,000.
