I bought my house in mid 2014. My solicitor said I had to pay half the property tax for 2014, which was grand and it had to be paid to her before I got the keys. So that was all paid and she sorted it out.
A few months later I checked and noticed the property tax band I had paid in was for the value of the house in mid 2014 and not in 2013, which put it into the next value band.
So i sent Revenue some print outs from the PPR of neighbouring houses sale prices in 2013 and proved that I should be in the 200 -250k price bracket rather than the 250-300k price band and they wrote back and pretty much said tough luck. I forgot about it but I just got this years LPT bill and Im still in the higher band and this has annoyed me. I should be paying the tax based on the value of my house in 2013 not 2014
Should I just drop does or should revenue change it for me? I pay enough tax as it is!
