Council tax valuations

The revaluations should have been no more than five years apart.

Revaluation should only take place when a property is sold IMO. That is
the only point at which the value of the property has any relationship
with your income.

Then you get the situation where, like my previous home, it doesn't
change hands for ten years, by which time it had almost quadrupled in
value. the one over the road changed hands four time while I was there,
and septupled in value over the same period, before dropping back to
five times it's 2001 value. Under the current system, they're both in
Band A, and both sold for about the same price in 2001.

I know a number of people who have been in the same house for over
thirty years. Are you suggesting that their property taxes should be
based on a value from the 1970s?
