Understanding Business Rates
Business rates are a tax on non-domestic properties, including shops, offices, warehouses, and factories. They are a significant expense for property owners and can significantly impact a business’s profitability. Understanding how business rates are calculated and assessed is essential for ensuring compliance and minimizing costs.
The Impact of Material Change in Circumstances
A material change in circumstance, such as changes to the property or surrounding area, can affect the rateable value of a property and, consequently, its business rates liability. These changes may include alterations to the property, changes in market conditions, or developments in the surrounding area. It’s crucial for property owners to stay informed about any material changes that may impact their business rates liability.

If you believe that your business rates assessment is unjust or if you have experienced material changes in circumstances that may affect your liability, it’s essential to take action. While business rates assessments are typically effective for the next three years, challenging unjust assessments can lead to reductions in your liability and significant cost savings.
