We offer three flexible valuation options to suit your needs: In-Person Valuation, Virtual Valuation, and Instant Online Valuation. Choose the option that best fits your needs and let us help you take the next step in your property journey.
At Turpie & Co, we provide three different options for homeowners who are considering selling their property. Each service is tailored depending on what stage you are at in the process of deciding whether to sell your property.
All of the services are free and come with no obligation to sell or to use our agency. They can offer invaluable advice when considering the sale of your largest asset. The information below should help you decide which valuation service is most suited to your needs.
An ‘online’ or instant’ valuation is produced by various software platforms and provides an estimated valuation figure by using collated data of historic sales within your postcode area, and applying algorithms which take into account inflation as well as the prices of currently advertised properties.
This in-turn produces an estimated valuation range for your property. These tools are often not accurate when compared with the valuation figures
that an agent would provide a homeowner at an in-person valuation appointment.
Probable accuracy range between £50k to £100k depending on the price bracket your property falls into.
A ‘desktop’ or ‘virtual’ valuation is conducted via a pre-arranged telephone appointment or virtual meeting such as ‘Teams’ or ‘Zoom’. The agent will carry out the same research as they would for a physical (in-person) appointment, however they wouldn’t visit your property so the advice, guidance and recommendations would be based on their individual and company experience and track record of similar sales in the area.
A desktop valuation can be useful when you are planning to sell in the coming 3-6 months and are gathering information to allow you to set a realistic and affordable budget for your onward move etc. The desktop valuation is typically followed up by a physical in-person valuation when you are within 4 weeks of being ready to list your property for sale.
Probable accuracy range between £25k to £50k depending on the price bracket your property falls into.
This is a traditional physical appointment where the agent visits you at your property. The agent will carry out the same pre-meeting research as with the Desktop valuation, however will be able to provide a more comprehensive survey and appraisal of your home and provide more specific and bespoke recommendations on how to market your property and a more accurate valuation.
This will include estimated Home Report value and anticipated selling price (these figures can often be quite different depending on the property, location and current market conditions) An accuracy of within approximately £10k of the anticipated HR value with estimate of potential upside selling price (i.e. anticipated selling price – different from predicted HR value).
If you are thinking about selling your property in the coming months, please contact us to discuss which valuation option is right for you.
