Forthcoming Events

London

We have a panel of leading practitioners to answer questions from the audience on a number of topical rating issues. This event will be followed by drinks and canapés to give time for valuable networking.

This course addresses the range of issues that need to be considered before a lease is signed, with implications for both landlord and tenant and identifies practical measures to reduce the risks. It examines the problems and events which will typically arise over the life of a commercial letting and how to deliver advantageous outcomes. This course surveys all the commonly-occurring issues, the pitfalls and the top tips.

Valuing land and property for compulsory purchase compensation is a step into a hypothetical world – where land is taken, where some land is taken and no land taken, with its own language and terms - severance and injurious affection - with potential for ransom, and planning assumptions; and its own set of case law dictating what valuers are to do.  Valuers are increasingly expected to get their valuation right first time.  This is a thorough review of the valuation best practice and the underlying methodologies in respect of compulsory purchase and its compensation.

This is a comprehensive review of the procedures, skills and expectations for those that take rating disputes to the Valuation or Upper Tribunal (Lands Chamber). Understanding the tribunal procedures, adhering to the duties and expectations of an expert, and the impact of Gardiner Theobald LLP v. Jackson (VO) 2018 are key reasons to attend.  

For the 6th year in Leeds, we have a panel of leading practitioners to answer questions from the audience on a number of topical rating issues. Questions and topics will come from the chair, Andrew Hetherton, the panel and the audience.

The National Rating Day has become a tradition in the rating world where practitioners attend to be updated on current topics, network and contribute to help shape changes for the future.  Speakers represent the private sector, the Valuation Office Agency (VOA) and the Valuation Tribunal Service (VTS).

The conference is always popular – attracting over 300 practitioners. If you are involved in rating work, this is the event that is too important to miss.
