What We Do

RICS ‘Red Book’ compliant market valuations, both current and retrospective, can be provided for ATED, Inheritance and Capital Gains Tax purposes, covering mainly prime central and greater London.

Reinstatement cost assessments are required for buildings insurance purposes. These help ensure that a property is properly covered for the full amount it would realistically cost to reinstate, allowing for demolition, labour, materials, professional fees and compliance with building and statutory legislation. We cover principal dwellings, listed/heritage property, farms, rural estates and equine facilities.

Desktop rebuild cost assessments can be a timely and cost-effective means of ensuring adequate cover for smaller, non-listed properties. These are undertaken remotely using recognised construction cost and mapping databases and can generally be provided within 3-5 working days.

Thank you so much for all your help and introductions over the years, it has been a pleasure to work with you and benefit from your experience and professionalism.
AS, Director and insurance broker, Oxfordshire

HMRC have accepted your valuation which means that the property is now not subject to ATED and we will be getting a repayment of the tax already paid.  This is a fantastic result so thank you very much for all your work and research.
RB, Solicitor, London WC2

Many thanks for the excellent work and timely completion. I will be sure to recommend you highly to friends, as well as to (accountants).
