Contact us: Charities Act valuations in London and the Home Counties

Whether you are acquiring or disposing of property, land, or leases, our RICS-qualified chartered surveyors deliver accurate and compliant valuation reports tailored to charitable organisations’ unique requirements.
What is a Section 119 Charities Act valuation?
A Charities Act valuation is a mandatory report required under Section 119 of The Charities Act 2011 for registered charities planning to dispose of land, property, or leases longer than seven years. Prepared by a qualified chartered surveyor, this valuation ensures that the charity receives the best possible price or terms for the asset while complying with Charity Commission regulations. The report also verifies that the property has been marketed appropriately and aligns with market conditions.
