How it works

From postcode to appeal pack in three steps.

We've automated the manual neighbours-check that successful challengers do themselves — and packaged it as evidence the Valuation Office Agency expects. Anyone can challenge their band for free via GOV.UK; we just make the comparison evidence quick to assemble.

STEP 01

Compare your band

We benchmark your property against every comparable home on your street.

Enter your postcode and we instantly query the official Valuation Office Agency dataset for every council tax band on your street and surrounding postcodes. We filter for properties of similar type, size and age and show you exactly how yours compares — using the same 1991 valuation benchmarks the VOA itself uses.

STEP 02

Build your appeal pack

An evidence-led pack the Valuation Tribunal expects to see.

If your band looks higher than comparable neighbours, we generate a complete appeal pack in minutes — a detailed comparison report listing every relevant property in your area plus a draft challenge letter that follows VOA and Valuation Tribunal procedures word-for-word. Everything you need to make your case in one downloadable PDF.

STEP 03

Submit and save

Submit free to the VOA. If successful, your band drops permanently.

Submit your pack to the VOA via their free online form and wait — typically two to four months — for a decision. There is no solicitor required, no fee from us at submission, and no risk beyond the rare possibility of an upward reband (which is why we show you the evidence first). If successful, your band is permanently reduced and you may receive a refund covering years of overpayment.
