Why do you need a registered valuation?
All the research and fact collecting that you do when planning to buy or sell is called ‘due diligence’. Doing your homework properly will ensure that you buy the property for a price you are happy with and that you don’t miss out on a great opportunity (or make a serious mistake) due to lack of relevant, timely and accurate property and market information.
Property InDepth valuation Smart Reports provide you with valuable information that you need to complete the due diligence process.
There are several different types of valuations – so what’s the difference?
