Help to Buy Valuation in OX7 4

A Help to Buy valuation is fundamentally different from a standard mortgage valuation or a condition survey. This valuation is specifically required by your equity loan provider (such as the Homes and Communities Agency or your local housing association) to determine the current market value of your property at the point of redemption or sale. The valuation must be carried out by a RICS registered valuer and conducted in accordance with the RICS Valuation - Global Standards, commonly known as the Red Book. Our valuers are fully trained in these standards and understand exactly what your equity loan provider will be looking for in the report.
