Rating 
Davis Coffer Lyons recognises that, as a fixed cost to all businesses, any saving that can be made on rates can benefit a client’s underlying performance.
As the leading specialist licensed leisure property advisers, DCL is best equipped to ensure these savings are crystallised. Our Landlord & Tenant team has saved clients hundreds of thousands of pounds and continues to secure large savings in rating assessments, either through negotiation or at Tribunal. The team also advises on temporary reductions where there has been a material change in circumstances, such as road works and the recent foot and mouth outbreak which can lead to reductions and refunds increasing profitability and reducing Sky TV charges.
The team comprises market-leading experts, who can boast vast experience and in-depth knowledge. Rating assessments made by the Valuation Office Agency are frequently based on limited information and are not always accurate giving scope for appeal; but DCL’s strengths ensure clients benefit from reliable and crucial advice on business rates, which remain one of the largest overheads in the leisure and hospitality industry.
The valuation date for the 2010 revaluation is 1 April 2008 with the draft list published in October 2009.
