Shared Ownership Valuation

Secure Your Quote

Shared ownership valuations are required if a customer has bought a home using a shared ownership scheme and later wishes to sell the property or purchase more shares in it. Help to Buy is one example of such a scheme as well as Right to Buy. Find out more about these specific schemes through the links above.

RICS Valuations for Shared Ownership

Valuations for shared ownership cover a wide range of ownership models and are designed to help you make an informed decision with an accurate and in-depth analysis of your property’s value. Helpful for homeowners, Housing Associations, Local Authorities, Target HCAs* and any other interested parties, our shared ownership valuations (supported by RICS standards) paint a clear picture of the value of your home.

This service is often used to determine how much the next share in your property will cost, often referred to as ‘staircasing’, or as a way to estimate the value of your portion of the property if sold.

* A target HCA is a private company that has entered into an agreement with Homes England to deal with the customers of Help to Buy once their home purchase has been completed.
