Shared Ownership Valuation in Sherfield on Loddon

Shared ownership properties operate under unique leasehold arrangements where you own a share of the property and pay rent on the remaining portion. When you want to staircase (buy more shares), sell your share, or remortgage, the housing association requires a RICS qualified valuer to assess the full market value. This valuation determines both the price you'll pay for additional equity and the value of your share when selling on the open market.
