Help to Buy Valuation in Old Milverton

A Help to Buy valuation is a specific type of property assessment required when you want to repay your equity loan, remortgage, or sell your property that was purchased through the Help to Buy: Equity Loan scheme. Unlike a standard mortgage valuation, this must be carried out by a RICS registered valuer who will assess your property against current market conditions and comparable sales evidence in the local area. The valuation report must be formally addressed to Homes England and comply with their specific requirements. This means using standardised RICS Red Book methodology that other valuations may not follow.

The process involves our surveyor visiting your Old Milverton property to conduct a thorough inspection of the interior and exterior, measuring the property and noting its condition, layout, and any improvements or alterations that may affect its value. They will then research recent sales of similar properties in the village and surrounding areas to determine an accurate current market value. In Old Milverton, where property types range from substantial detached homes averaging £656,700 to flats around £595,000, our local knowledge is invaluable. We understand which developments and street locations command premium prices and can factor these into our assessment.

Once the inspection is complete, we will produce a formal valuation report that includes the RICS valuer's registration number, details of comparable sales used to determine the valuation, photographs of the property, and confirmation that the valuation is valid for three months. This report is what you will submit to Homes England or your mortgage lender as part of your equity loan redemption process. Our reports are comprehensive and meet the exacting standards required by Homes England for equity loan redemptions.

It is worth noting that if you purchased your property through the Help to Buy scheme, you will have a 20% equity loan (or 40% in London) from Homes England. When you come to repay this loan, the amount you owe is calculated based on the current market value of your property, not what you originally paid. This makes obtaining an accurate, up-to-date valuation absolutely essential for your financial planning.
