Show Notes

Council tax bills in Edinburgh surge, with long-term empty properties and second homes facing up to four times the standard rate. This could mean bills as high as sixteen thousand pounds for an average Band D property. The new premiums aim to tackle homelessness but may create financial strain for owners without significantly boosting housing supply.
