Council Tax Discount

lexham56

I'm looking at buying a small B&B, officially registered as a mixed use property (3 bedrooms are registered for business rates, and 1 'suite' is registered as the owners private accommodation).  The 3 letting rooms are valued well below the Business Rates threshold, so no Business Rates are payable - only regular council tax.  Therefore, My question is, as I would be the ONLY person living there as my primary address, would I still qualify for the 25% single person council tax discount?

I think you would still qualify for SPD, but if it is a deal breaker, would suggest you check with the relevant council before purchase
