Local Property Tax (LPT) liability

Properties that become liable for LPT

Your property may become liable for LPT for the first time in 2025. If so, you should value your property and submit your LPT Return by 2 December 2024.

If your property is a residential property on 1 November 2024, it is liable for LPT in 2025. In most cases, this means that your property may become liable for LPT in 2025 if:

  • it is a newly-bulit residential property completed after 1 November 2023 and on, or before, 1 November 2024
  • or
  • it has become occupied, or suitable for use as a dwelling, after 1 November 2023 and on, or before, 1 November 2024.

Newly built residential properties

If you purchased, or built, a new residential property between 2 November 2023 and 1 November 2024, it will be liable for LPT in 2025 if, on 1 November 2024, it was:

  • occupied
  • or
  • suitable for use as a dwelling.

Properties that have become suitable for use as a dwelling

Your property may not have been previously liable for LPT if it was unsuitable for use as a dwelling. For example, a partially collapsed property with no sanitary facilities is not suitable for use as a dwelling.

However, if such a property was renovated, and is now suitable for use as a dwelling, it is liable for LPT. The property will become liable for LPT in 2025 if, on 1 November 2024, it is:

  • occupied
  • or
  • suitable for use as a dwelling.
