The Homes England Help to Buy scheme has helped thousands of people to buy their home by offering a contribution towards the initial purchase. This means that they continue to own a percentage of your home. You may decide that you wish to buy back some, or all of the Help to Buy share of your home. If you do, you will need a RICS Help to Buy Survey (otherwise known as a Help to Buy valuation Report).
We have made it really easy to get a Homes England Help to Buy Valuation Report. Simply follow these steps and we can get a surveyor to attend your property and produce a report for you to give to your Help to Buy agent and Homes England. Incidentally, all of our reports come with a ‘money back guarantee‘ to be accepted by Homes England.

Help to Buy Valuation Report, A Surveyors Perspective
When you bought your home, you had a valuation carried out by the mortgage lender to ensure that the property was worth what the developer was selling it for. The mortgage lender wanted to be 100% sure that the value was correct which is why they instructed a RICS surveyor.
My job is to make sure that we get a 100% accurate valuation for your property so that when Homes England Help to Buy calculate what you owe them, it is the correct amount. I take time to understand the true value of your property and do not simply work off what you paid for it.
Make sure your Help to Buy valuation is accurate by appointing fpsurveying to come out and see you.
