Free RICS Survey

We offer a free valuation just like most other Estate agents in Kensington for both sales and lettings without the need to visit your property in person. That's because we use clever web based technology to create a report for you.

Uniquely and as part of our online packages we will also arrange for a RICS qualified property surveyor to prepare a FREE RICS valuation report of your property.  This is exactly what the banks use to value your property when a buyer is arranging mortgage finance.

The report gives you a good indication that you are marketing your property at the correct price, which is vitally important when trying to attract a buyer quickly. This is not a service likely to be offered by other estate agents in Kensington.  A mortgage valuation is often charged at over £300 by Banks and Building Societies.  Do you want to know more about a RICS valuation?
