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
