RICS VALUATIONS
As Chartered Surveyors and Estate Agents, we take pride in our RICS accreditation, assuring you that our property valuations adhere to globally recognised standards.
Distinguishing itself from an estate agent's valuation appraisal, a RICS Market Valuation conducted by our surveyors involves a meticulous assessment of a property's construction, size, condition, and location.
Our extensively trained and experienced valuers conduct a thorough technical assessment, combining it with the sale prices of comparable properties recently sold in the area to provide an evidence-based valuation.
What sets us apart is the absence of a conflict of interest – our valuers do not earn commission, ensuring an impartial and accurate Market Valuation.
Beyond assisting with property transactions, we extend our expertise to provide professional written valuation reports for various purposes:
1. Mortgage Valuation: Conducted on behalf of lenders to determine the property's value as collateral for a mortgage loan.
