Kerry is one of only two counties which have lowered the local property tax for 2021 when compared to this year.

Local authorities can add an additional 0% to 15% on the LPT base rate.

Earlier this week, Kerry councillors voted in favour of increasing the LPT by 7.5% on the base rate – however, this is a decrease from last year’s 10%.

Wicklow County Council also decreased the tax rate; it’s going from 10% above the base rate to 0% in 2021, according to the Irish Independent.

From January, 12 counties will impose the maximum 15% additional to the LPT base rate.
