What is a Help to Buy Valuation?

The Help to Buy scheme allows buyers to purchase a new build property with a 5% deposit and the government provides a 20% (40% in London), interest free equity loan for the first 5 years.

When the loan’s interest starts to accrue after five years, many homeowners choose to repay their Help to Buy loan. A official RICS “Red Book” appraisal is necessary if a property is sold or the Help to Buy loan is repaid, either in full or in part. This official value report should be completed by a RICS Registered Valuer with expertise in Target Help to Buy valuations. Paul Airey Chartered Surveyors are approved and able to complete these reports.

REVIEWS AND TESTIMONIALS

Excellent service.

Paul has been extremely helpful with surveys and gave many useful advice on property purchase to me who is a first time buyer.

The level 2 report I ordered was well written and help confirmed the condition and value of the property I was buying. Paul was very responsive with questions and has helped me on a potentially serious issue that I have found, days before completion, on a short notice. I highly recommend him and his company for surveys for homebuyers.

I would definitely recommend your services to others. It has been really easy working with this company and everything was completed within the timeframe you said it would be done. Thank you James for all of your help and communication throughout this process of buying our first home. :)

Great quality service!

After searching for a reasonably priced RICS surveyor we came across James. The most affordable service we found & couldn’t have asked for a better service. James understood we were on a tight timescale. From the survey, paying to receiving the report. All was complete and off to the relevant places within 24 hours. Couldn’t be happier. Thank you!
