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 Target 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.
Why You May Need A Target Help to Buy Valuation Report
When it comes to paying back your equity loan you have two options; Full Redemption, paying your equity loan back in full with or without selling your property or Partial Redemption also known as Staircasing, where you pay back part of your equity loan without selling your property.
For details on the full process and documentation needed for both options please read the Target HCA Customer Information Pack.
Redeem when you sell
If you sell the property against which your loan is secured, you will need to repay your loan in full. This is also known as loan redemption.
