Appeals

You may appeal against the rateable value for your property:

* If you believe that your new rateable value from 1 April 2000 is incorrect
* If the Valuation Officer changes your rateable value for any reason.
* If part of your property has become excepted from rate liability
* If there has been a change in 'material circumstances' which you feel affects the value of your property, such as

  • a change in its physical state such as adding to or demolishing part of it.
  • a change in its use.
  • a physical change in the locality.
  • a change in the use of a neighbouring property.
 

Can I make an appeal against my rateable value in the 1990 or 1995 rating list?
You can no longer make an appeal against the 1990 and 1995 valuation lists, unless your appeal is in response to a 'list alteration' made by the local Valuation Officer.





Will I be dealt with more quickly if I instruct an agent?
Priority is not given to ratepayers who appoint an agent.
