Non-Domestic Rating factsheet: repair and your rateable value

This fact sheet explains what needs to be considered when dealing with properties that are not in a state of reasonable repair.

This publication was withdrawn on

The Valuation Office Agency is currently revising guidance on repair and its impact on rateable value, following the Court of Appeal decision Newbiggin (VO) and SJ & J Monk [2015] EWCA CIV 78. We aim to publish a new factsheet on this subject in the near future.
