How the rateable value is calculated

The Valuation Office Agency (VOA) uses a ‘rental’ method to value offices.

The VOA gathers information about rents paid for offices. It analyses the information and works out a price per square metre for each floor area. It also considers things like rent free periods and improvements made by the tenant.

The price per square metre is multiplied by the property floor area to get the rateable value.

Features such as air conditioning and lifts may be shown separately in the valuation.

This property is part of valuation scheme 600820 which groups comparable properties together.
