Rated commercial stock in an authority
sourcing_commercialRated commercial stock in a local authority, filtered by sector and
rateable value — the commercial sourcing lane. Each row carries its
rateable value, an income-basis value, the freeholder where a title links,
and any auction history.
NO £/m² IS PUBLISHED and you should not compute one. The VOA's measured
area is not loaded, and dividing a hereditament-level rateable value by
the twin's unit-level floor area gives nonsense — it produced £235,301/m²
on a Westminster office before it was removed.
`lad_code` is REQUIRED and is the only scope: this is the one indexed way
into the twin for a bounded set of hereditaments. Use `area_resolve` to
turn a place name into a GSS code.
RATEABLE VALUE IS NOT RENT. It is the VOA's estimate of annual rental
value at the rating list's antecedent valuation date (1 April 2024 for the
2026 list). Do not quote it as passing rent or as income.
`income_basis_value` divides that RV by the district's own commercial
auction yield, so it is an arithmetic conversion anchored to local
evidence, not a valuation — and it reads `not_available` where the
district has no auction yield evidence, because a default yield would
produce a number that looks like a valuation. Report the yield and the
number of lots behind it.
One rating list is loaded (2026), so there is no RV trajectory per
property, no measured floor area from the VOA, and no vacancy signal.
