Matrimonial and divorce settlements sometimes involve the valuation of property assets for the purpose of dividing them. Landlords sometimes need to establish a building’s accurate market value in order to settle disputes with tenants that arise at the rent review stage or understand what their shared ownership of a building amounts to.

Lease Extension Valuation Southend-on-Sea

A Lease Extension Surveyor is more precise than a Lease Extension Cost Calculator, which can only offer a ballpark figure. The process of serving a Section 42 notice, required for the lease extension, involves getting an RICS valuation on the property, which can be arranged through the Chartered Surveyor Lease Extension Southend-on-Sea team. Once the RICS valuation is in, you can enter into negotiations between landlord and tenant. In some situations, you might require a valuation report for your share of freehold when it comes to extending your lease or for shared ownership properties. This report is called a lease extension survey and is performed by a lease extension valuation surveyor. This surveyor will calculate just how much it would cost to buy more years on your lease and present this figure to you in the form of a lease extension valuation report.

Reaching an agreement in a construction dispute can also be facilitated by an expert witness report in compliance with CPR Part 35.
