Tax Glossary Definition
The Gross Annual Value represents the highest among the current market value, the actual rent (whether received or receivable), or the fair rental value of a property. This value reflects what the property could command on the open market under ideal conditions, devoid of either an oversupply or shortage of accommodation.
