What is an RICS valuation?

A valuation is an independent assessment of a residential property’s market value, or market rental value. At Avery & Co, our valuations are produced by local and experienced valuers, who are registered with the RICS.

Why might you need a valuation?

There are many reasons why people may need a valuation, including: –

1. Purchase or sale – while we always recommend a full home survey before committing to a purchase, we can also provide an accurate valuation to support your decision and protect your financial investment.
2. Government Schemes – including Help to Buy and similar initiatives. Please click  HERE for more details.
3. Shared ownership/shared equity – for staircasing, resale, or initial purchase purposes.
4. Insolvency.
5. Separation or Matrimonial.
6. Taxation – such as capital gais or inheritance tax.

What do you get?

When you instruct Avery & Co, you can expect a clear, professional, and reliable service:

1. A visual inspection of the property, internal and externally, carried out by one of our qualified RICS registered valuers.

6. A formally assessed ‘Market Value’, or ‘Market Rent’ prepared in accordance with RICS guidance (the “Red Book” standards).
