The "Rate in the Dollar"
The council determines the amount to be paid in rates by applying a rate in the dollar to the assessed value of each property. When that total value of all properties goes up, the council reduces the rate in the dollar to compensate. There is no windfall gain.
How a “Rate in the Dollar” is Calculated
For a council using only a general rate, the rate in the dollar is calculated as follows:
If council plans to raise the total rate revenue of $10 million, and the total Capital Improved Value of all rateable properties in the municipality is $2,380 billion, then the rate in the dollar is calculated by dividing $10 million by $2,38 billion = 0.42 cents in the dollar.
How are a Property’s Rates Calculated?The formula for calculating the rates for an individual property (excluding any additional charges or arrears) is the valuation multiplied by the rate in the dollar set by the council. Councils determine the rate in the dollar as part of their budget process.
For example if the Capital Improved Value of a property is $250,000 and the council rate in the dollar is set at 0.42 cents, the rate bill would be $1050 ($250,000 x 0.0042).
Your rate notice will provide specific details on how your rates are calculated.
Property valuations
Property values affect the amount paid in municipal rates. State legislation requires that all properties in every municipality are revalued every two years.
Changes in property values will vary across a municipality. These will be reflected in each property's rate bill. A general revaluation may result in the rates for some properties going up while others go down. If a property's value increases by less than the average increase across the municipality, the rates for that property will be relatively lower. Rates will be relatively higher if a property's value increases by more than the average increase in valuation.
Councils do not collect extra revenue as a result of the revaluation process. Valuations are simply used as an apportioning tool to assess the rates payable for each individual property.
Information about a property's value is included on the rate notice issued by the council.
Property values are determined by independent professional valuers appointed by a council or the State Valuer General. These valuers assess the market value of each property in line with guidelines laid down by the State Valuer General.
Valuers must assess the value of a property in three ways:
Capital Improved Value - the total market value of the land plus buildings and other improvements;
Net Annual Value - the current value of a property's net annual rent (by law, Net Annual Value must be at least five per cent of the Capital Improved Value for commercial property and exactly five percent of Capital Improved Value for residential property).
Site Value - the market value of the land only
Most Victorian councils use the Capital Improved Value to levy rates. |
