our expertise
Everyone wants expertise. Everyone wants competitive pricing. Matching them up is difficult. Quite often, the less expensive the service, the less experienced the company is dealing with it. Conversely, the more expensive the service, the more experienced the company is.
Through significant investment into technology that allows us to make cost savings in our processes, we are able to offer significant expertise at a reasonable price point.
All of our qualified Valuers are RICS Registered Valuers and are all either Chartered Surveyors or AssocRICS qualified Surveyors, both recognised by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.
Our reports are compliant with the highest quality standards available, including those in the RICS Red Book, which represents the gold standard of Valuation reporting.
market valuation reports
The term ‘Market Valuation’ refers to a to a type of report that is undertaken by an RICS qualified Surveyor and complies with the RICS Global Valuation standards. The purpose of the report is to provide a professional opinion as to the value of a property at a given date. It differs to a market appraisal which is usually done by an estate agent and briefly outlines what the property might sell for in the current local market and is far less regulated.
You would for example normally need a market valuation for the following purposes:
- Inheritance tax valuation
- Capital Gains Tax valuation
- Shared Ownership staircasing (Purchasing more equity/shares)
- Help to Buy loan repayment
- Matrimonial/Divorce settlements (Splitting of assets)
At Websters Surveyors we often undertake Market valuation reports all across London and the surrounding counties. Our team of Chartered Surveyors have the necessary experience and knowledge and have helped hundreds of clients.
Statutory tax valuations
Capital Gains tax is paid on the profits made on properties held as an investment, after all allowances are first used.
Inheritance Tax is paid on the value of an estate once a threshold is reached (currently £325,000).
Your accountant or conveyancing solicitor or probate solicitor may have asked you to obtain a Red Book compliant Market Valuation to aid the assessment of Inheritance Tax or Capital Gains tax. In the case of the former, a Market Valuation is often an HMRC requirement before probate can be granted.
At Websters, our Chartered Surveyors and RICS Registered Valuers often carry out tax valuations for exactly these purposes and will often work with your Solicitor or Accountant to deal with any issues. We are very experienced in providing these types of Valuation reports. Our senior team have decades of experience in this field.
