The Valuation Office Agency (VOA) estimated the sale price of your home as if it had it been sold on 1 April 1991. The value of your home was then placed into a group (or band) of other similarly valued properties. All new homes are still valued as if they had existed and been sold on 1 April 1991. If you are moving into a new property, tell us you are moving and we will inform the VOA for you. How much council tax you pay is based on which valuation band your property is in. Valuation bands Your home has been placed into one of eight bands. The 1991 values are shown in the table below: 1991 property values Valuation Band Range of property values (at at 1 April 1991) A Up to and including £40,000 B £40,001 - £52,000 C £52,001 - £68,000 D £68,001 - £88,000 E £88,001 - £120,000 F £120,001 - £160,000 G £160,001 - £320,000 H More than £320,001 Your council tax bill will show in which band your home has been valued.
