The doubling of Council tax is certainly having an impact in some areas - lots of second home owner property on the market in Somerset and to a degree in Dorset. By putting it on the market they get normal rates for a year. I guess it is having the desired effect for some Councils.- freeing up houses for locals ?
However like most government/Local council actions people can find a way round (not going to say friends) who have ‘transferred ownership’ to a son and a couple who decoupled (aka separated, registered on the electoral register and got round it !!
