Why council tax bands are often wrong
Council tax bands in England were set in 1991 — based on estimated property values from over 30 years ago. There has never been a national revaluation. Many properties were assessed using rough estimates, and neighbouring homes of very similar size and type can end up in different bands simply due to how the original assessments were carried out.
