Appeals

In certain circumstances you may be able to appeal against the valuation band your property has been placed in.

This may be where there has been a structural change, part or all of the property may have been demolished or there may have been changes in the locality that may affect the value.

You may also appeal against the banding of a new property.

If you have recently occupied, you have six months from the date you moved in to make an appeal.
