The Valuation Office Agency (VOA) groups similar properties together. It gives the group a price range for floor areas and units (such as air conditioning). This helps make rateable values fair and consistent.
Properties in this scheme
The value is applicable to Day Nurseries within the West Essex location - Basildon, Brentwood, Chelmsford, Epping Forest, Harlow, Thurrock and Uttlesford. The basis of valuation is on a price per square metre basis. The price per square metre will reflect the physical and locational advantages or disadvantages of each nursery. For example in any particular general location it might be expected that those nurseries in prime locations perhaps in or en-route to city centres or in close proximity to major employers, will attract the highest price per square metre whilst those in tertiary residential areas will be at the lower end of the range of values.
Prices in this scheme
Properties in this scheme have a base rate price range from £40.00 to £270.00 per square metre or unit.
The VOA applies a base rate to individual properties in this scheme. This is the per square metre price for the main floor area in the property.
The VOA may adjust the base rate to take into account what an individual property is like.
Parking
A price for parking is not given separately in this scheme because it is (one of the following):
- already included in the value of the buildings
- not relevant, for example at advertising rights
Property features
Property features with a value of £0 are already reflected in the base rate price per square metre or unit or have been valued elsewhere.
