Valuation in London

A valuation is not a survey. It answers one question — what the property is worth — and it will not tell you whether the roof is sound. People are sent here by a lender, a solicitor or HMRC rather than by curiosity. London's homeowners needing a price for sale, probate or refinancing pay less when they let local partners compete on the same brief.

London pro tip

Pre-1930 London terraces and converted houses usually justify a Level 3 Building Survey — clay-subsoil movement and past alterations are common findings.

What you'll likely pay in London

Based on 2026 UK market data and our London professional network. Your real quotes may come in lower — approved local professionals price the same brief openly.

How we calculate this: we blend live partner quote data with regional cost-of-doing-business multipliers (rent, fuel, labour, parking permits). Estimates exclude very long-distance moves, pianos, antiques and storage on top of removals.

Before you ask for quotes

What to know about valuation

A mortgage valuation is for the lender, not you

It confirms the property covers the loan. It is often not shown to you in full, and it is not a condition report. If you want to know about the building, that is a survey.

Probate and divorce need a Red Book valuation

A RICS "Red Book" valuation is the formal, defensible kind, dated to a specific day. HMRC and courts expect one; an estate agent's appraisal is not a substitute.

Say what the valuation is for when you ask

Sale, probate, divorce, shared ownership, Help to Buy staircasing and capital gains all need different bases of valuation. Naming yours gets you an accurate quote first time.
