An independent assessment

Clarity for an important decision.

Separation can bring difficult decisions about property. Our role is to assess market value and explain the evidence behind it.

We work with you and your solicitor to confirm the valuation date, required report and instructions. Where jointly appointed as a single expert, we work under the agreed instructions and applicable requirements.

The assessment remains independent of either party’s preferred outcome.

The right report

Scope agreed from the outset.

Tell us how the report will be used, whether proceedings have started and any instructions from your solicitor.

Mediation reports

Prepared for the agreed purpose of assisting property settlement discussions outside court. We confirm the level of detail and intended use with you or your solicitor before the work begins.

Court reports

More detailed reports prepared for the agreed court purpose and instructions. Share any orders, reporting requirements and deadlines so we can confirm the appropriate engagement.

Your questions

Family law valuations, clearly explained.

Your solicitor can advise on the legal requirements and instructions for your matter.

When might I need a valuation?

A valuation may help establish market value during separation or a property settlement. Your solicitor can advise on the report and instructions appropriate to your matter.

Can both parties appoint you?

We can accept joint instructions. Ask your solicitors to provide the proposed instructions so we can confirm the engagement arrangements. Where appointed as a single expert, the valuation remains independent.

Who pays?

Payment arrangements are confirmed as part of the engagement. Let us know whether instructions are joint and who should receive the invoice. Your solicitors can advise on any agreement or court order about costs.

What do I need to provide?

Send the property address, required valuation date, report deadline, parties’ details and any solicitor or court instructions. We will confirm further information and access arrangements.

What if I need an updated report or court attendance?

Tell us what is required so we can confirm availability, scope and any additional fees before proceeding.

What does market value mean?

Market value is an assessment of the price a property would exchange for at the valuation date between a willing buyer and willing seller in an arm’s-length transaction, after proper marketing, with both acting knowledgeably and without compulsion. It is an assessment supported by evidence, rather than an asking price or a preferred settlement figure.

Does a report guarantee a court outcome?

No. The report provides independent valuation evidence. The court determines how evidence is used, and your solicitor advises on your proceedings.
