Frequently asked questions
Simply fill in the above form and we’ll be in touch about a market appraisal. We’ll ask a few opening questions and then set up a time to meet you and view the property.
A market appraisal differs from a ‘red book’ property valuation. What we’re offering here is a market appraisal where we’ll give you a guide price ahead of putting your property on the market so you have an idea of what it may sell for. A ‘red book’ valuation is prepared in accordance with the RICS valuation global standards, and can be used for tax, legal and financial purposes. For more information on these valuations, contact our UK Residential Valuations team.
- Property details (number of bedrooms and bathrooms, facilities, size and scope, décor, additional features, like a swimming pool, tennis court, etc)
- Location (where it is and what it is near to, local amenities, transport links)
- Property market at the time (what has sold in the area recently, what the market is generally doing at the time)
Our market appraisals are free. We’ll provide an informal appraisal of your property to give you an idea of what your home could sell for. This is a guideline for a potential sale price based on certain criteria.
Our market appraisals are estimates to be used as a guide only. For a more formal ‘red book’ valuation, contact our UK Residential Valuations team.
When we view the property, we’ll walk around your home, garden and any additional facilities included in the sale. We recommend a clear, fresh space, like what you would present to a potential buyer. A lack of clutter and busyness helps us get the best picture of your home.
Viewing the property to make a market appraisal can take from 30 minutes to a few hours, depending on the size of the property and its facilities. During this visit, the agent will ask more specific questions about your home to get a better idea of what it could be worth.
Once we’ve visited your property, we’ll follow up with our market recommendation report via email. This will include ‘comparables’ — examples of similar properties that help us come to the best estimate of what your property may sell for. We’ll also share our terms of business and any other costs related to marketing the property should you decide to sell it through us.
Not at all. A market appraisal is a commitment-free service performed by our agents to help you make informed decisions about your property.
If you feel that our estimation is not aligned with your expectations, getting a second opinion may help ease any concerns. We’re also happy to provide a second opinion on a market appraisal you may have received elsewhere.
As our market appraisals are informal, they don’t technically expire. However, they may become outdated as the market changes so it’s best to reassess regularly. This is different to a ‘red book’ valuation, which is provided on an agreed date. In this case, our valuers may provide an opinion on the outlook of the property market at the time of valuation to advise on possible short-term changes.
Whether you’re looking to sell or buy a property, we’ve put together a series of guides to take you through the processes involved and give you an overview of what to expect.
