Business Rates

Mallard's experienced and recently formed rating team deliver expert advice on all aspects of business rates valuation.

With our experience working with commercial property, our business rates valuation team can determine the 'rateable value' of your property in accordance with the Valuation Office's latest rating values. Unfortunately business rates are an unavoidable tax for all types of organisations throughout South West Wales and the rest of the UK. Business rates are generally equal to around 45% of your property's annual rent, making this expense a significant overhead for any business.

The Mallard team has expertise in rating specialist properties for a wide variety of locally based, corporate clients. The business rates team has experience in valuing:

• Retail
• Offices
• Industrial Properties

We also have a particular specialism in valuing the following niche property types on a UK wide basis including:

• Leisure (public houses and holiday/caravan parks)
• Education

Thanks to our knowledge of business rate valuation, our local teams are able to present a range of high standard services to clients throughout Llanelli, Swansea, Mumbles, Ammanford and the wider South West Wales area.

We provide the following services to maximise rating savings for all our clients:

• Undertaking negotiation of appeals
• Presentation of cases at Valuation Tribunals
• Calculation of rates liabilities
• Advice relating to the changes in rating for empty buildings

We have also produced a number of briefing notes which provide advice on the changes to empty rates legislation.
