AIM by Ascendant Solutions

As a Local Authority, do you know if all residential properties in your area are registered for council tax or registered correctly? 

Ascendant Intelligent Monitoring (AIM) provides all rental and sale market data for residential properties within a Local Authority’s area. Historic reporting with access to over 10 years of property listing data as well as land registry property sales back to 1995. 
 
AIM also identifies unclassified listings that don't match the Postcode Address File (PAF), this is a dataset that contains all known delivery points and postcodes within the United Kingdom for Royal Mail. 
Local Authority data solutions
What does this mean for your Local Authority? 
One example of a Local Authority using AIM, they established that an empty property that was previously a public house had been converted into self-contained flats and the Local Authority had the property listed as an HMO. With AIM, it showed when the flats were first rented, who they were rented to and when tenants changed. 
 
This example generated more than £50,000 in backdated council tax revenue and increased annual revenue.

Testimonial for Ascendant Solutions
"With the help of Ascendant, we were able to prove a customer had been creating fake tenants in an attempt to defraud the council of tax over the space of 5 years. The customer was changing their name by deed poll multiple times to create the credit a footprint of a customer that never existed. The customer has now accepted liability for £6,000 in council tax, paying a large upfront sum with an arrangement set up for the remainder. Without Ascendant’s services, we would still be investigating today."
