Why Valuations Matter
By Chloe Sinclair on and updated on
A professional valuation determines a property’s market value or reinstatement cost, offering clarity for various purposes:
- Probate: Ensures fair asset distribution during estate settlements.
- Lease Extensions: Provides accurate figures for negotiations with freeholders.
- Help to Buy: Calculates the equity share to repay when selling or remortgaging.
- Tax Planning: Supports capital gains or inheritance tax calculations.
- Investment Decisions: Helps investors assess a property’s potential return.
