What is the best way to value your home?
The most accurate home valuations are done over the phone and in person, to truly understand all the details about your property. But we understand that not everyone has the time or desire to do that.
Whilst online property valuation tools may be handy for a ballpark figure, there are so many additional factors that a property professional who is visiting a property in person will take into consideration. Those who have revamped their homes or have had an extension fitted will benefit far more with a visit from a property valuer. How could a valuation tool possibly predict the financial benefit of your new open plan living space and extra bedroom? Or the presence of rising damp? Or a massive crack in a load-bearing wall?
Whilst we would like online valuation tools to be able to provide accurate valuations (it would certainly make the lives of our team easier!), we here at 123 Direct are not at all convinced that you can get a realistic property valuation at the click of a mouse. That is why we only ever instruct RICS qualified surveyors/ valuers to assess your property. We want to give you the best and most accurate price for your property.

Value my property FAQ
We understand that you will have questions that need answering. Here’s everything you need to know about our valuations and cash offers.
During our first phone call, we’ll do a desktop appraisal to give you an initial offer – along with the details you give us, we use data from Land Registry, RightMove Plus, and other third party sources. If you are interested in progressing at that stage, we then send round a maximum of 2 RICS qualified surveyors/ valuers (under strict health and safety guidance) to complete the valuation process. We would then take the average of these valuations to determine the true market value of the property and base our final cash offer on this figure.
We do not use an online valuation tool to determine the true market value of a property. As we discuss in our Value My House page, these tools are unreliable, easily manipulated and produce wildly varied results depending on which tool you use. Instead, we base our final valuation on both an at-desk online assessment (using LandRegistry, RightMove Plus and other third party sources) and the in-person valuations of a maximum of two RICS qualified surveyors/ valuers.
In some cases, we can offer a value based on directly comparable properties in the local area, thereby removing the necessity for an in house valuation.
Our aim is always to arrive at the most accurate value for every property. You can rest assured that our processes are designed to be as watertight as possible – if we get the value wrong, we risk losing our own money when it comes to the resale. What’s more, we only ever use RICS qualified surveyors/ valuers to assess your property.
Absolutely. If the average of the second valuation is higher than the initial offer we have given you based on our at-desk assessment, our final offer would then be 80% – 90% of that higher figure – just as if the average was lower, our offer would then need to be 80% – 90% of the lower figure.
Property values can be highly subjective. Ultimately, your property is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. Estate agents can determine a value based on their experience, what the property market is doing and what similar properties have sold for in your area. It is, however, worth remembering that they will often value the property higher in order to win the instruction, and then chip it down over time when it doesn’t go for that amount. Online valuation tools will make similar assumptions and also don’t have the in-person experience of walking around the property and getting a feel for its condition and decorative order. This is why at WeBuyAnyHome we cover all bases to get the most accurate valuation possible.

How much is my house worth?
If you’re selling your home, you should be prepared that what your property sells for may be different from the valuation figure you’re given. This will often depend upon the timeframe you have for selling and other personal circumstances affecting the sale.
At 123direct we can work to any timeframe, and you could have the cash for your sold property in as little as 7 days. Need a quicker solution? Simply get in touch on 020 8004 2558. What makes us unique is our ability to take any property off of your hands in a very short timeframe, following acceptance of our cash offer. With some properties lingering in estate agent’s windows for months and months, in many cases, a guaranteed sale in as little as just 7 days is exactly what you need.
Check out the properties and timescales below to understand the differences between a traditional estate agent – which specialises in securing a speedy sale for a realistic asking price – and 123 Direct.
