The amount of non resident taxes 2013 is based on the rateable value of the land and the property. It is different for each property. In some areas the rateable value for the land or the property has raised, so the taxes will be higher. In a few areas it has dropped a bit, so a bit less to pay. Most areas the rateable values have stayed the same, so similar tax amount to be paid as last year.
