At River Crest Surveyors, we offer RICS-approved valuation reports and property surveys across the South of England. Whether you’re buying, selling, or managing financial and legal matters, having an accurate, independent assessment of your property’s value is key. Our RICS-accredited surveyors deliver clear, professional reports you can trust.

Our valuation service is especially useful for Help to Buy, shared ownership, probate, capital gains or inheritance tax, and private sales. Every report is based on a full inspection and detailed analysis of comparable local properties, ensuring reliable, market-based insights.

What Is a RICS Valuation Report?

A RICS Valuation Report provides a professional opinion of your property’s current market value, prepared by a qualified RICS surveyor. Unlike free valuations from estate agents, our reports are impartial and follow strict industry standards.

Each report includes:

  • A site visit to inspect the property’s condition and features
  • Consideration of key factors like location, layout, size, and condition
  • Market insight based on recent comparable sales in the area
  • Photographs of the property’s interior and exterior

Whether you’re applying for a mortgage, settling an estate, or preparing to sell, a RICS valuation offers a dependable foundation for your next step.
