Catastral Value

Hi,

I didn't get any response to my question from the general forum, so I am posting it here in the hope that one of our legal subscribers may notice it and be able to answer.....

Does anyone know the procedure/costs involved  for appealing against the catastral value applied to a new property together with any time limit that may apply? If an appeal is successful, would any IBI and deemed rental tax paid on the inflated value be refundable?

If your IBI receipt (Local property tax) over-rises after a Cadastre review, there are two possible avenues of legal action:

Thank you, Maria.

Just to be clear. This was niot a review, but the very first catastral value applied to a new property. I had consulted two lawyers, both saying that they were unsure of the appeal procedures and would explore possibilities, but neither of whom has ever got back to me. It is now more than two months since I received the letter by registered post. Does that mean there is nothing I can do now? (I am not complaining about the index applied to the catastral value, but the catastral value itself).

Dear Plexx:

After 30 days of  notification of cadastral value/revision there is nothing you can do.

I am very sorry!

Thanks for all that, Maria, although I think I may be more sorry than you!

Does anyone know if the cadastral value changes every year.

I have just completed my return using last years value as it is the only amount i have, but should i request an updated value.

if so , from whom.

My apartment is in the casares area (cds)

Cadastral values are revised every each 10 years.
