Business Rates is a local property tax based
on rental value and charged on all non-domestic property. The
burden of business rates is increasing and we provide a
professional service to minimise this cost for ratepayers, in both
the public and private sectors.
The basis for rates charge is the rateable
value, reviewed every five years. A successful appeal reduces the
rateable value, lowering rates costs during the five year life of a
rating list. We will also advise on the full effective use of
allowances, exemptions and deletions. Rates now apply in full for
empty property.
Core services:
- Survey, valuation advice and appeals
- Rate refund calculations and recovery
- Identifying empty rate relief
opportunities
- Rates budgeting forecasts
