Help to Buy Valuation in IP32 7 Bury St Edmunds

When you purchased your property through the Help to Buy scheme, you received an equity loan from the government to supplement your deposit. This loan is typically worth up to 20% of the property value (or 40% in London), and it must be repaid when you sell your property. The repayment amount is calculated based on the current market value of your home, not the price you originally paid. This means that if your property has increased in value, your equity loan repayment will be higher, and if property values have fallen, you may find that you owe more than your property is worth.

Our RICS registered valuers in Bury St Edmunds will conduct a thorough inspection of your property, taking into account its current condition, location, and the prevailing market conditions in IP32 7.

The valuation report we produce is accepted by all Help to Buy agents and mortgage lenders, ensuring a smooth transaction when you come to sell.
