Valuations

We can provide valuations for a variety of purposes, including for the purposes of inheritance tax and right to buy. Valuations differ from surveys in that a valuation specifically relates to the value of the property based on its location, current condition and size. A valuation will not identify any potential or current issues with the property.

Mortgage Valuations

Our Chief Surveyor, Sion Raw-Rees, is on the panel of several Banks and Building Societies, and is qualified to provide valuation reports for mortgage purposes, remortgages and further advances. In order to save time and cost, we recommend combining a mortgage valuation with a Homebuyer Report & Survey.

Inheritance Tax / Probate Valuations

During the unfortunate circumstances of someone's death, a valuation of their estate is normally required for the purposes of assessing the level of inheritance tax. This is provided to the Inland Revenue. The valuation is taken from the date of death, which could be some weeks or months previously, and this therefore requires some level of research.

Matrimonial Valuations

Unfortunately, divorce and separation are common-place in todays society, and subsequent disputes over shared assets can be costly. Timothy A Brown can assist in such disputes by providing an independent valuation for such assets, with a report being provided to the Court to assist with making a judgement.

Capital Gains Tax Valuations

It is likely that individuals who own multiple properties may be liable to Capital Gains Tax upon selling. In order to assist with calculating Capital Gains, previous valuations of the property may be required.

Relocation Valuations

Many relocation companies require relocation valuations, which Timothy A Brown can provide upon request.

Right To Buy Valuations

Over the last 10-15 years or so, the social housing market has seen a significant shift in its trends, where tenants who were previously renting are now buying their properties from Local Authorities and Housing Associations. We act on behalf of tenants, providing a fully independent valuation in order to ensure the price being paid is a fair one. We also act for Housing Authorities in order to provide an initial valuation.
