Council tax banding

Rosetill

I live in a semi detached two bedroom bungalow built 1999 therefore before April 1991. We bought in 2020. We are in band C and the three bedrooms semi detached houses on the same road are in band B. Any advice as I don’t have proof of the original sale in January 2000. There were 8 bungalows built 1999 on the road all exactly the same and they are all in band C. Need some advice as to what I can do. I did contact valuation office but they want proof of the value when they were built or first sold

If built in 1999, how can that be before April 1991?

Bungalows are often valued higher than nearby semi-detached houses, even if there are less bedrooms - they'll tend to have a bigger footprint.

Original sale should be recorded by the Land Registry. You can download details for a few pounds. Unless you live in an area of low house prices, Band C does not seem excessive for a 2 bed S/D bungalow.
