General Valuation
Choose this report for help to buy exit valuations or inheritance tax purposes.
As it provides the surveyor’s professional opinion on the ‘market value’ of the property. Although please note that this is NOT a survey report and does not report on the condition of the property.
When to use a General Valuation
The focus is on assessing the general condition of the main elements of a property. This intermediate level of service includes a more extensive visual inspection of the building, its services and grounds, but still without tests.
Concealed areas normally opened or used by the occupiers are inspected if it is safe and possible to do so (typical examples include roof spaces, basements and cellars). The report objectively describes the condition of the different elements and provides an assessment of the relative importance of the defects/problems.
