Shared Ownership Valuation in Camblesforth

A shared ownership valuation differs from a standard mortgage valuation because it determines the full market value of your property as well as the percentage equity you currently hold. When you staircase (increase your share) or request a remortgage, your housing association or lender needs to know the current market value to calculate the financial implications. Our RICS registered valuers understand the complexities of shared ownership leases and provide comprehensive reports that satisfy all parties involved in your transaction.
