NUN - Probate Case Support for Empty Properties (Concession contract)

This specification outlines the requirements for a Probate Specialist to support the Council’s Empty Property Team in managing properties that are F Class Council Tax exempt due to probate, as well as other properties that are stuck in probate. The specialist will assist in verifying exemption eligibility, engaging with property owners or next of kin, and facilitating the resolution of probate related issues to bring properties back into use. This would be a concession contract; the data shared between parties will be used for helping bring back empty properties to use. The probate specialist will use the data to offer advice, separate to the council, and engaging with the owner to see what support can be offered. This partnership would seek to bring change to the borough through no cost to the council. For further information please see tender document pack.
