We normally charge council tax for empty properties. This can include properties that are empty for any length of time, even if it is only a few days.
There is no discount for most empty properties.
Uninhabitable properties
Unoccupied properties needing major work no longer receive an exemption. The full Council Tax charge still needs to be paid.
In some cases, if a property is in severe disrepair or derelict, you can appeal to the Valuation Office to have the property deleted from the Council Tax lists.
Any outstanding Council Tax will remain payable whilst the appeal is happening.
