The Value Of A Valuation

There are now technically two different types of Home Buyer Report; one with a valuation of the property and a second without. The move to expand them like this allows more surveyors to provide the reports. Previously the fact they contained a value meant that the surveyor had to be qualified to provide it. This restricted the number of providers.

With two types to choose from it is worth looking at the benefits that a clear, independent, non-biased valuation can offer. It is much more than simply a matter of stating how much the property is worth based on its condition and the current market. The information is actually a valuable negotiating tool and can help you to get the best for your money.

Properties are generally the most valuable asset that people purchase. They should always be viewed as a long term investment, particularly when you first buy them. If you overpay at the very beginning you need the value to rise more in the long term to make a good return. Ideally you want to get a great deal at the offset so you can enjoy a bigger return if the value rises. Having an independent valuation can help you to negotiate the deal.

When you view a property it is easy to get distracted by the current condition and base your value on it whether for good or bad. With a proper survey and valuation you can get an impartial insight based on the actual value.
