Frequently Asked Questions
What is a probate property valuation?
A probate valuation determines the market value of a property at the date of the owner's death. It's used to calculate inheritance tax and is a required part of the probate process.Do I need a RICS surveyor for probate?
Not always. HMRC accepts estate agent valuations for most standard cases. A formal RICS “Red Book” valuation is typically only needed for high-value estates or when requested by a solicitor.
How much does a probate valuation cost?
Our estate agent probate valuations are completely free and include a written letter suitable for HMRC. If a formal RICS valuation is needed, we can arrange one from £300–£1500 depending on the property.
Can I sell the property before probate is granted?
You can market and prepare the property for sale, but contracts cannot be exchanged until probate is officially granted. We’ll guide you through every step so you’re ready when the time comes.
