How Much Is My property Worth?

Yes. All of our house valuation options are free of charge.

This is entirely up to you. There’s no harm is getting a valuation if you want to check the asking price. However, keep in mind that your mortgage lender will carry out a valuation as well.

Although the valuer won’t be taking marketing photos at the initial appointment, it’s a good idea to make your property feel appealing. A few simple steps will also make the process of valuing as quick and efficient as possible.

• You don’t need to go to huge efforts but decluttering and tidying up will make your home feel inviting and spacious, and make it easier to take measurements.
• Ensure you have completed and compiled any relevant paperwork ahead of the valuation so that it is ready to hand over.
• Finally, note down any questions you’d like to ask so that you don’t forget them when the time comes.

Once we have carefully calculated an accurate valuation of your property. If a buyer offers more than the valuation, just like with any offer, you have three choices:

1. Accept the higher offer
2. Make a counter-offer
3. Reject the offer

Ultimately, you can ask for whatever price you like for your property. Professional valuations are extremely useful to give an accurate market value. If your asking price is deemed above the realistic market value by the buyer’s mortgage lender, they may have issues securing a mortgage. This can mean you don’t get offers and/or sales fall through. For this reason, it’s sensible to seek professional advice when setting market value and in the vast majority of cases clients happily agree with their estate agent’s valuation.
