Rates Mitigation & De-Rating
Business Rates Mitigation & De-Rating
At AVIDAN Group, we offer more than just demolition and strip-out solutions — we help clients unlock real financial savings through targeted Business Rates Mitigation services.
Business rates are a major cost for property owners, occupiers, and developers. However, when a building is no longer capable of beneficial occupation — for example, during refurbishment or redevelopment — it may be eligible for de-rating, which can significantly reduce or eliminate your rates liability.
Our role is to ensure that this process is planned, justified, and documented properly from day one.
How We Do It
AVIDAN Group works closely with clients, surveyors, and rating consultants to:
- Strategically plan and execute soft strip-outs and enabling works
- Identify the specific works required to render a building unoccupiable
- Carry out physical works that support a de-rating application
- Coordinate photographic evidence, documentation, and access for valuation inspections
- Minimise your liability period while ensuring all HMRC and VOA guidance is followed
We align every step of the process with current case law and rating authority expectations.
