Which local authority sets council tax for SA1?
Council tax is set by the authority covering the property, and an outcode can straddle a boundary — two SA1 homes in the same band can be billed different amounts. Check the exact figure with the authority that bills the address.
How is council tax worked out for an SA1 property?
Council tax depends on your property's valuation band (A–H in England and Scotland, A–I in Wales) and the rates set by the local authority. Bands are fixed from 1991 values in England and Scotland and 2003 values in Wales, not today's price, so ask the seller or check the band on the official register (the Valuation Office Agency in England and Wales, the Scottish Assessors in Scotland).
