Existing property owners - change your postal address for your rates notice
To change your postal address for your Rates Notice, Council requires your advice in writing, emailed or faxed. The following information is required for verification purposes:
- The property address of the rateable property
- The old postal address for the rates notice
- The new postal address for the rates notice
- The Assessment Number of the rateable property, as shown on the rate notice.
New property owners - change of ownership and postal address details
We require the official "notice of sale" from the Land & Property Information Office to update ownership details.
It is usually 8 weeks or more after the date of sale of the property before we receive the official "notice of sale". We often receive requests from the new owners, during this time, to make changes to the ownership and postal addresses. We cannot make these changes until the "notice of sale" has been received. We will retain the request for change of address until the "notice of sale" has been received.
When the notice of sale is received, we will update our records in accordance with the request. The following information is required to change your postal address.
- The property address of the rateable property
- Your old address shown on the "notice of sale"
- The new postal address for the rates notice
