Help to Buy Valuation in Nettlestone and Seaview

A Help to Buy valuation is a specific type of RICS Red Book valuation required by the government scheme administrator when you want to sell your property, remortgage, or make changes to your equity loan. Unlike a standard market valuation, this assessment must be carried out by a RICS registered valuer who will inspect your property and produce a formal report that complies with the Help to Buy (Equity Loan) scheme requirements. The valuation must be dated within a specific timeframe before completion of your sale or remortgage, so timing is important.
