Saffron Housing Trust
Watsons Property Group have always taken the needs of Saffron into account where we require different valuations for different purposes such as, Right to Buy Valuations or Shared Ownership Staircasing Valuations. They are always keen to support us and work hard to turn around the valuations in an efficient manner, so this does not cause a detriment to us, the homeowner or tenant. - Lou Chapman, Head of Communications
Asset Disposal Valuation
A disposal valuation refers to an inspection carried out to determine the value of a property at which it should be sold or disposed of.
Desktop Valuation
A desktop or remote valuation refers to an inspection that is conducted using information accessible via online platforms and does not require the surveyor to physically attend the property at any stage.
Development Appraisal
A development appraisal assesses a parcel of land with planning permission to establish the value of the land as part of the proposed development. Assessing the financial viability is crucial in deciding whether the project should proceed.
Lease Extension Valuation
As proud ALEP (Association of Leasehold Enfranchisement Practitioners) members, Watsons are excellently positioned to aid you with any Leasehold Extensions.
Shared Ownership
Whether one of your vendors is selling or staircasing their property, we are here to help with the required valuations. We understand that different housing associations have different rules regarding selling properties or repaying loans, and we are highly experienced at adapting to these various requirements.
External & Internal Inspection Valuation
This valuation uses the same valuation tools as a Desktop Valuation, which includes a full review of comparable properties.
Retrospective Valuation
A Retrospective Valuation is a valuation of the property at a date that pre-dates the Surveyor’s inspection. The valuation will provide the customer with an accurate price at the specified date in time.
RICS Red Book Valuation
The ‘Red Book’ is the name given to the RICS’s Valuation Professional Standards. Published every 2 or 3 years, the valuation standards are a set of mandatory rules and guidelines for RICS Registered Valuers to follow when they are undertaking valuations.
