Shared Ownership Valuation in Glinton

A shared ownership valuation is an assessment of your property's full market value conducted by a RICS registered valuer. This valuation is required when you want to staircase (purchase more shares), sell your share, or remortgage your shared ownership property. The report provides an independent, professional assessment that meets the requirements of housing associations and mortgage lenders. In Glinton, our valuers will consider local market conditions, including recent sales data from streets like Welmore Road and High Street, to determine an accurate market value for your specific property. This ensures the valuation reflects the true current state of the Glinton property market.

If the valuation comes in lower than anticipated, our valuer can explain the factors that influenced this result and advise on potential steps you might take. In the current Glinton market, where prices have decreased by 2% year-on-year and are 19% below the 2021 peak, lower valuations may simply reflect broader market conditions rather than issues with your specific property. For staircasing, this means you would pay less for additional shares, which can actually be advantageous. If you are selling, you can discuss pricing strategies with your housing association.
