Property Valuations for Shared Ownership Staircasing and Sale
A Shared Ownership valuation determines the current market value of your property. This value is then used to calculate the price for staircasing or to set the sale price for your share.
This valuation is required when:
- Increasing your ownership share (staircasing)
- Selling your shared ownership property
- Remortgaging a shared ownership lease
During the valuation, our surveyors assess key factors including:
- The property’s size, layout, and condition
- Comparable property sales in the local area
- Construction type and structural considerations
- Local market trends and demand
Our clear, professional reports ensure the valuation can be accepted by housing associations, lenders, and scheme administrators.
