From 1 December 2023 all HMOs in England are to be valued as a single property (aggregated) for Council Tax purposes.

These amendments to legislation apply to all HMOs (including both licensed and unlicensed HMOs).

If you own or live in a licensed or unlicensed HMO which is not currently aggregated and you are liable to pay Council Tax, you mustsubmit a proposalfor us to bring your Council Tax banding in line with new legislation.

We have a statutory four-month deadline to respond to such proposals.
