The Valuation Office website suggests that from April 2023 the premises will have a rateable value of £8,400. At this level occupiers can expect to benefit from 100% rate relief subject to status. We advise interested parties to make their own enquiries to Brighton & Hove’s Council to verify the above and the level of business rates payable and small business relief.
