Horrendous valuation. Report to mortgage company even stated that there were no comparable properties but they still undervalued by a massive amount. They wouldn’t accept the comparable properties we provided either. Actually ridiculous company. The biggest joke is Connells estate agents has a house on the market a few doors up for over £30k more and the property is much smaller and in no where near as good a condition. Absolutely madness and a complete waste of time. Given the surveyor wasn’t from the area, had no idea about the area, how he can value a property for rent on an accurate basis I don’t know. We had numerous estate agents provide us with examples of houses being rented out that are similar to ours and for the amounts being rented which provide a much more accurate picture than the “no comparable properties” that Connells stated. Basically just picking a number out the air. I will be submitting a formal complaint via NatWest and Connells on return from holiday and will get great satisfaction when I can provide the proof of rent once we have a tenant to prove how in-accurate their surveys are.
