What happens where house prices have risen or fallen since 1 April 1991?
The council tax band of a property is not related to its current market value. This is because, by law, council tax valuations are based on the price a property would have fetched if it had been sold on 1 April 1991. General price movements in the housing market since 1991 are not, therefore, a reason for changing your council tax banding.
