What difference will my updated property valuation make to my rates?
An increase in property values in the district doesn’t increase Council’s rating income – so an increase in the valuation of a property doesn’t mean an equivalent rates increase for that property. If the percentage change in valuation is different for different properties, though, it can change the way that the rates collected by the Council is distributed among individual ratepayers.
Typically, where a property’s revaluation exceeds the average revaluation increase in an area, the property will have a slightly higher rates increase than the average. Conversely, a property that has a revaluation below the average revaluation increase for that area will have a slightly lower rates increase than the average.
Before rates will start to be based on the new valuations on 1 July 2018 the Council will be looking at the impact of the revaluations on rates and affordability as part of our rating review. Following this, any proposed changes to how we spread rates costs across the district will be shared with the community for their feedback early in 2018. This would take place as part of our community consultation on our draft long term plan.
