ATED Valuations | RICS Chartered Surveyors

Annual Tax on Enveloped Dwellings (ATED) is a tax levied on high-value residential properties owned by companies or other corporate entities. The purpose of ATED is to discourage the use of corporate structures to avoid or reduce tax liabilities.

The ATED regime was introduced in 2013 and applies to residential properties valued above the £500k threshold. The threshold is subject to change and may vary from year to year, so it's essential to check the current threshold set by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC).

Properties within the scope of ATED are required to file an annual ATED tax return and pay the corresponding tax. The tax liability is determined based on the value of the property and falls into different chargeable bands, with each band having its own annual tax rate. The 2023/2024 ATED rates are:

Property value / Charge

£500,001 - £1m / £4,150

£1m - £2m / £8,450

£2m - £5m / £28,650

£5m - £10m / £67,050

£10m - £20m / £134,550

Over £20m / £269,450

Do I need a professional valuation for ATED?

A revaluation of the property at 1 April 2022 is now required and will form the basis for the ATED charge for properties for the next five years. Updated revaluations are likely to take many properties over the £500k threshold and into the ATED regime for the first time and, five years on from the last valuation, many properties could go up a band. Therefore, using a professional valuation is highly recommended for several reasons. At Mylako chartered surveyors, our RICS registered valuers possess the expertise and knowledge necessary to accurately assess the market value of your residential property. Our in-depth understanding of property markets and valuation methods ensures that the valuation is conducted in accordance with the requirements set by HMRC. This helps you avoid under or overestimating the value, which can lead to potential penalties or paying more tax than is necessary. Furthermore, our valuations reports carry more weight and credibility with HMRC. The tax authorities are more likely to accept a valuation report prepared by a registered valuer as it demonstrates a thorough and objective assessment of the property's value. This can help in mitigating any potential challenges or disputes during the ATED tax assessment process.

What our customers say about us

Eli and the team at Mylako have been kind, professional and responded quickly to any problems we had with our small rented flat. I would recommend them to others, and feel very lucky to have had their help and support behind the scenes for our seven year tenancy in Battersea.

Harriet Worsley

I was a tenant in a Mylako-managed flat for three years and had a very positive experience. There were clear channels for communication, and the team was very responsive and went over and above to ensure I was comfortable and safe in the flat and had all the information I needed. Marcela was particularly friendly and helpful. I would have stayed even longer if I wasn't looking for a bigger flat with my boyfriend. Even then, I first asked Mylako if they had alternatives I could look at!

Lisa Cousins

Mylako have dealt with my concerns and challenges to do with the management of my flat and the building in a professional, courteous and timely manner. Businesses are made up of people and Mylako has some great professionals working there who take the needs and situations of their customers very seriously and it shows with the correction of issues relating to works needing to be done, accounts to be paid and a myriad of other things for which a capable and willing managing agent is essential

Alex Tanner

Amazing service! Renting in London can be tricky but in our case, we had Marcela from Mylako who was always available to help. They truly want the tenants to have a great stay which is rare and much appreciated!

Nienke Gras

We were tenants in a Mylako property for three and half years. By far the best management company either of us has rented from. They're so responsive, act on things quickly and fantastic communicators. We mostly liaised with Marcela who was an absolute pleasure to do deal with throughout our tenancy; she was so helpful, professional and thorough. But all the team are fab, can't recommend them enough.
