Secure Your Home Ownership with Professional RTB Valuations
Exercising your Right to Buy or Right to Acquire should be straightforward, but incorrect valuations can derail the process. Holden's Chartered Surveyors specialise in independent assessments that protect your interests when purchasing from councils or housing associations. We go beyond basic inspections, analysing identical local sales and applying strict government valuation rules to determine your property's true market value. This ensures your discount (up to £116,200 in London) is calculated correctly – and gives you ammunition if challenging the landlord's figures. For tenants, our reports mean confidence in the biggest financial decision of their lives. For solicitors, they provide court-ready evidence. And for lenders, they offer assurance the property is worth the loan. With council valuations sometimes 10-20% above market rates, our intervention regularly saves clients thousands. Trust our 15+ years of RTB expertise to navigate complex valuation rules, tight deadlines, and potential disputes – making your home ownership journey as smooth as possible.
