I believe that under a shared-facility HMO situation, Council Tax is levied on the whole property.
I'm thinking of buying a Section 257 HMO (a building converted to 4 self-contained studios that doesn't meet the relevant building standards).
I'm being told it is paying 1 council tax bill for the whole property.
Does that sound correct?
No issue if it is paying £1,700/year but not so great if it is re-assessed at 4 x £1,300/year.
Wondering what experience others have had with their councils
