WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ATED VALUATIONS

ATED is levied by the government on any property that can be classified as a dwelling. I.e., any building used by a company that could at least partly be used for residential purposes.

The following properties are exempt from the ATED scheme:

  • Hospitals
  • Hotels
  • Guest house
  • Military accommodation
  • Boarding school accommodation
  • Prisons
  • Student halls
  • Care homes

The ATED Scheme was updated in 2016. Now, any dwelling – provided its value exceeds half a million pounds – owned in partnership with a company or an investor may be subject to ATED. If you’re unsure of your obligations, require advice or need a valuation, don’t hesitate to call us.

DO I REALLY NEED AT ATED VALUATION?

Obtaining an accurate and impartial valuation from a RICS Valuer helps ensure you don’t pay too much tax based on your property’s value. Moreover, getting a valuation report every five years is a legal requirement.
