From 1 October 2018, no exemptions or discounts are awarded for a property that has been long term empty (over 12 months).
If the property is not undergoing structural repair, considered to be a second home or actively being marketed for sale or rent then a levy of 100% of the Council Tax charge will be applied.
If you are in this position, but think you may be exempt from the levy, please contact us for advice or complete and return an exemption from levy application form with evidence to support your claim.
