How can I calculate the value of a residential property?
While online tools can give you a general idea of your property’s value, it’s often recommended to work with a residential property valuer. They will assess market trends, locations, condition, and the specific features of your home.
What is the best method for valuing a property?
A professional in-person valuation by a RICS-registered expert is widely considered to be the most accurate method, especially when supported by local knowledge and comparable sales data.
How long does a residential valuation take?
As a general rule of thumb, most residential valuations take about 30 minutes to an hour and a half, depending on the property size. Working with experienced valuers ensures a smooth, hassle-free process.
