Business Rates represent a significant outgoing and over recent years have become ever more complicated, with pitfalls for the unwary or ill-advised. Inevitably, these complications can result in Business Ratepayers spending a disproportionate amount of their time dealing with rate bills. GVA Dixon Webb is highly experienced in this field and provides a specialist service managing clients’ Business Rates.
Clients are offered a rating audit, which can often identify new ways of making savings or minimising rates. Over the last 10 years, we have saved our clients well over £100m and only recently secured a saving for one major client of more than £3.5m because of our expert knowledge of changes in regulations.
Obtaining a reduction in rating assessments is still a crucial issue, but a constant awareness of regulatory change and transitional matters is fast becoming equally important.
