At Capital Chartered, we have built a reputation for being reliable partners in residential property valuations across London.
Whatever your commercial property valuation requirements (buying, selling, audit or tax) it is important to use an experienced RICS Registered Valuer. We can provide specialist advice on all commercial property valuation matters and provide “Red Book Valuations” complying with the RICS professional standards.
Capital Chartered specialise in residential, commercial and mixed use property portfolio valuations, market appraisals and consultancy services for companies, institutions and private individuals.
The RICS HomeBuyer Report is suitable for simple, traditional properties that appear in reasonable condition and includes an opinion of market value. It identifies what the Surveyor considers to be the most important issues and applies a condition rating to the defects identified.
A Building Survey (or Structural Survey as it was previously known) is a detailed inspection of each of the external and internal elements of a property, as far as they are accessible. Once the inspection is completed a comprehensive written report is provided to you that include photographs of particular issues of concern.
Capital Chartered is widely recognised as an established partner for plant, machinery, and equipment valuations across the UK, EMEA region and globally, primarily through a strong international network of valuers through its parent firm, ValuStrat.
HMO’s remain a popular investment for landlords. HMO’s have traditionally been considered a commercial valuation on a residential property, however, HMO’s have become a specific asset class. Valuing HMO’s is a specialised field. The type of valuation (“bricks and mortar” or “commercial”) will depend on the purpose of the valuation, the type of HMO and whether it is in an Article 4 area.
Valuations used in clients’ tax calculations should be calculated on the correct basis, using best practice and experienced Valuers. Capital Chartered has HMRC trained Directors who are well versed in preparing historic valuations including 31st March 1982 valuations as well as undertaking negotiations with the District Valuer.
HMRC now strongly recommend that in matters of IHT, a professional, qualified, Valuer is used to ensure the valuation is as accurate as possible and based on their view that; “There can be no assurance that a valuation from a selling estate agent will be sufficient.”
As with other tax valuations the use of a professional, qualified Valuer is essential. As they say; “HMRC will be able to enquire into returns and challenge valuations but they will normally be able to accept valuations prepared by a professional property Valuer.”
A snagging survey could save yourself thousands of pounds by identifying snags in your new property. If these snags are not identified then you could end up with a problem property. On average five snags are found per per room for a house or flat.
Some of the general valuation services we offer include the valuation of roof spaces and side returns, the valuation of garden land, Charities Act valuations, French Wealth Tax valuations, Staircasing valuations and valuations for when one party wishes to buy out another (for example, where the property is jointly owned).
