Council Tax discounts and exemptions for properties

Agricultural properties

You might not have to pay Council Tax if both:

  • the property is empty and unfurnished
  • the last time it was used, it was connected to farming or land-based work on the land it sits on

This exemption is meant for buildings that were part of agricultural use and are no longer lived in or used.
