Red Book Valuation
A RICS Red Book valuation is the recognised ‘gold standard’ for formal, evidence-based property valuations, required for legal, financial, and tax purposes.
As an RICS-registered valuer, I provide independent, compliant valuations you can rely on for formal use.
Standalone Red Book valuation reports are available for residential properties, including:
Red Book valuations are typically required for:
- Probate and Inheritance Tax
- Matrimonial and Divorce proceedings
- Capital Gains Tax
- Help to Buy and Shared Ownership
- Right to Buy
- Sales to family or connected parties
- Compulsory Purchase and Blight valuations
Red Book valuations are commonly required for legal, tax, and formal financial matters where an independent, compliant valuation is essential.
Fees depend on the type of valuation, property size, and complexity. A clear, fixed quotation will be provided once the property details have been reviewed.
Market valuations carried out alongside a Level 2 or Level 3 survey are available from £175.

The Valuation Process
How the process works:
1. Instruction and Review
Once instructed, I review the property details and confirm the scope of the valuation, ensuring it meets your specific requirements.
2. Property Inspection
I carry out an inspection of the property to assess its size, condition, layout, and any factors that may influence value.
3. Market Analysis
Comparable sales data and market evidence are analysed alongside the property’s characteristics to determine an accurate market value in line with RICS Red Book standards.
4. Report Delivery
A clear, compliant valuation report is prepared and typically delivered within a short timeframe, suitable for legal, tax, or formal purposes.
As an RICS-regulated valuer, all valuations are carried out in accordance with Red Book standards, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and reliability.
Reports are typically delivered within 2–3 working days following inspection.
