Business Rates
Understanding Business Rates
Business rates are one of the major expenses for commercial property occupiers, and they can be a significant financial burden, particularly for properties located in central areas or those with large floor spaces. Since the April 2023 revaluation, many businesses are still facing sizable rates bills despite the changes.
The Impact of the 2017 Valuation Office Agency (VOA) Overhaul
In 2017, the Valuation Office Agency (VOA) underwent a major workflow overhaul, making the appeal process more complex and cumbersome for ratepayers. With this in mind, it’s essential to ensure that your rates bill is correctly assessed and to take advantage of any applicable discounts or exemptions available to reduce your liability.
