From next year mortgagees in possession will become liable for council tax and the current exemption will be abolished. It's all part of the changes to the Local Government Finance Act.
Are mortgage companies aware of this and are they putting procedures in place to inform councils when they repossess?
Just curious because at the moment it can be pretty difficult finding out what's gone on and who is responsible when a property is repossessed. Billing is going to be hard enough, never mind collection.
Anyone heard anything?
