Do you own a shared ownership property?
Shared ownership properties offer people a chance to get on the property ladder without having to have such a large deposit. If you have one of these types of properties, you will own a certain percentage of the property and a housing developer or association will own the other.
Over time you can purchase more shares in the property to eventually make it 100% yours. This is usually done in 10% increments in a process known as ‘staircasing’. If you are planning to increase the amount of home you own, or are planning on selling your property, contact Eric Distin in Callington for a specialist valuation.
Why do I need a specialist valuation?
As property prices fluctuate all the time, you and the company that owns the remaining portion of your need to be sure that you are paying the correct price for your next share. Our assessors will accurately calculate the price using all information available. As we’re RICS accredited, you can be assured that the valuation we provide will be fair and accurate.
