Frequently Asked Questions
-
What should I expect during a valuation?
An agent will visit your property and look around, taking into account a range of different factors. They will then give you their assessment of how much they think you could sell or let for, and offer advice on whether there’s ways to maximise your property’s estimated rental or sales value.
-
How is the value of my property calculated?
Our ethical and transparent approach means you will always understand why we've valued your property at a certain price. During a sales valuation we consider several factors, including:
- The type of property you have (detached, semi-detached, terraced, flat)
- Current demand in the area
- The general condition of the property
- Your property's location, area demographic, and transport links
- If letting, the demographic your property will attract (e.g. families, professionals, students)
- If selling, specifics of the property such as size of garden, available parking, whether it’s freehold or leasehold

How much does a property valuation cost?
Alexander & Co offer complimentary valuations, like most estate agents. It is always advisable to use a reputable, experienced agent to provide your valuation. Be aware that some agents might present an inflated valuation to secure your business. However, an unrealistic price can result in your property remaining on the market longer than necessary. It also means potentially achieving a lower sale or rental price than if it had been accurately priced from the outset.
-
Do I need to be present at the property during a valuation?
No, you don’t, but it is preferred if possible, as the agent may have some questions to ask during their visit. They can get in touch afterwards if necessary.
