Fact-Check Pack: is the VO's record of your workshop right?

The evidence

  • The 11 comparable workshops: addresses, areas and rates
  • Your £ per m² against theirs, and the gap in £
  • Every allowance given nearby, and what each one is for
  • Valuation Tribunal decisions on similar properties, with the written decision to read

Your valuation

  • Line by line: every area, rate and allowance the VO used
  • Floor space as the VO measured it, to check against your lease plan
  • Rateable value history and any past Checks on your property
  • Analysis of similar VO Checks, Challenges and appeals: how many changed the list, and the typical cut

Your next steps

  • Whether you have grounds for a Check, and why
  • What to compare against your lease and certificate before you decide
  • The reliefs to ask your council for, and how
  • When a rating surveyor is worth it, and when you can do it yourself

Then what? The report covers each step

No Check needed unless your self-check finds something

Self-check

  • Is the floor area right? Compare with your lease plan.
  • Is the description right (workshop and premises, not something else)?
  • Any drawback the VO may not know: access, layout, no lift, no loading?
  • Is the property empty, or could you claim a relief?
Only if something is wrong
