Class C - Unoccupied and Substantially Unfurnished Properties
ListenProperties which are unoccupied and substantially unfurnished are exempt from Council Tax for up to 6 months. If the property remains empty once this initial 6 month period has passed, a 10% Discount will be granted so that Council Tax will be charged at 90% of the full charge.
Please note that the exemption only runs for 6 months from the date the property was initially vacated. No additional 'free' period would be allowed following a change of council taxpayer or owner.
To apply for this exemption please contact Revenue Services to advise us of the date from which the property has been empty and an address and telephone number where we may contact you, as we may need to see inside the property. All empty properties are inspected periodically.
