How does the WOZ handle non-residential properties with residential parts?
For the WOZ, there is a difference between residential and non-residential properties
Non-residential properties include shops, offices and factories. For non-residential properties, the rate for property tax is higher than for residential properties.
Some properties comprise both a residential property and a non-residential property
In such cases, we look at the division of the total value.
- Do you use under 70% of the value as a residence? Then we will classify it as a non-residential property.
- Do you use over 70% of the value as a residence? Then we will classify it as a residential property.
