Probate valuation · Newquay
Probate needs the home’s value on the date of death, not today’s price. In Newquay, average prices have moved 6.9% up over five years, so the date matters.





The short answer
Date of death
The average home today is £274,570. If the death was some time ago, the value the estate needs is the one from then.
| Date of death | Average home then | Change to today |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year ago (Aug 2025) | £282,874 | -2.9% |
| 3 years ago (Aug 2023) | £294,498 | -6.8% |
| 5 years ago (Aug 2021) | £256,808 | +6.9% |
| 10 years ago (Aug 2016) | £202,236 | +35.8% |

No. It is the value on the date of death. In Newquay the average home has moved 6.9% over five years, so a value from the wrong date can be far out.
For a simple estate well under the Inheritance Tax threshold, agents’ written appraisals are often used. Where tax may be due or the value could be challenged, a RICS valuation is the safer choice.
