Simply request your quote using our contact form or by phone. Our customer care team will quickly get in touch during opening hours.
We will arrange an appointment with you, carry out the survey, and once completed send you an invoice.
As soon as we receive payment of the invoice, we will email your Valuation. We also offer corporate accounts, with survey delivery on completion and monthly billing.
Upon completion you will receive a report that is an in depth combination of the surveyors local knowledge of current market prices, their research carried out on particulars like transport links and flood risk, and a reflection of all of the information collected from the site visit. The surveyor will have photographic evidence of his on-site findings.
The contents of the report can vary and certain areas be emphasised to suit the purpose of your valuation. The report can comprise of many variables such as tenure, location, services (gas, water, electricity, etc.), compliance to the fire safety order of 2005, planning permissions. On top of this basic information about the property details including its orientation, approximate age, construction summary, any outbuildings and parking can be included.
If you are considering refinancing solutions you will need to know the precise value of your property and by using a RICS accredited surveyor you are ensuring an in depth and authentic valuation report due to the regular auditing and high standards of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. It is common practice for mortgage lenders to insist that valuations be undertaken by an accredited RICS surveyor.
If you are planning to get a Home Buyers Report it is highly recommended to pair it with a valuation, this way if the valuation is less than the asking price of the property then it can be used alongside the homebuyer report, which has identified the issues, as evidence to negotiate the price.
By choosing a RICS accredited surveyor to carry out your valuation you are ensuring that you will receive an accurate report created with high attention to detail in mind, calculated by a regularly audited professional. The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) regularly emphasises the importance of professional, technical, and delivery standards to its surveyors, meaning that your report will be centred around recognised and established methods, competence, ethics, good judgement and evidential documentation.
While the physical inspection is a large and important part of the valuation process, work prior to and post site visit is just as key to correctly calculating the value of your property. Location in relation to transport links, school catchment areas, the likelihood of environmental complications such as floods, and other similar components are all variables that may be researched in relation to the value of your property.
The duration of the site visit can vary depending on the size and complexity of your property, as well as if you are having the valuation carried out alongside a Home Buyer Report. Upon booking we will be able to offer you an estimate of how long our assessor will be on site.
