What is a Shared Ownership Valuation?

A shared ownership valuation is the specialist RICS valuation usually needed by mortgage lenders and housing associations before you staircase, sell your share, or remortgage a shared ownership home. It is not the same as a basic mortgage valuation, because it gives a market view of both the full property value and the equity share you own.

Crawley values vary sharply by property type, with the average flat price around £216,000 and terraced homes averaging £345,000, so the exact equity figure matters. Our RICS registered valuers know the local developments and take account of Gatwick Airport, the town centre regeneration, and new housing schemes when assessing how the market is moving.

Your report sets out the current market value of the property, the value of your owned share, the minimum share percentage set by your housing association, plus any service charge or ground rent points that may affect the valuation. It gives lenders, housing associations and owners a clear professional record to work from.

How Our Valuation Process Works

1

Book Your Survey

Pick the date and time that suits you for the valuation. We confirm the appointment within 24 hours and send over the documents you need before our visit.

2

Property Inspection

One of our RICS surveyors visits your Crawley property and checks its size, condition, layout and key features. Most inspections take 30-60 minutes, depending on the property.

3

Market Analysis

After the visit, we compare what we have seen with recent sales evidence from your part of Crawley, allowing for local trends, nearby schemes and wider development activity.

4

Report Delivery

We send your valuation report within 3-5 working days of the inspection, so it is ready for your mortgage lender or housing association.

Why Professional Valuation Matters

Staircasing in Crawley needs a careful valuation, not guesswork. Semi-detached properties have seen 8.1% price growth, while flats have risen by 4.2%, and those movements can change what you pay for extra equity or what you receive when selling your share. A professional RICS valuation keeps the figure tied to the market.

Understanding Your Equity Position

Plenty of shared ownership owners in Crawley do not know exactly where their equity now stands. Detached properties average £671,000, and new builds reach £542,000 locally, so the uplift can be meaningful. We show what your share is worth and what it would cost to staircase to higher ownership levels.

Gatwick Airport keeps Crawley attractive to commuters, and that demand supports values across different parts of the town. There have been 1,200 property transactions in the past year, giving us a strong evidence base. A flat near Three Bridges station, a town centre apartment, or a quieter home in Maidenbower all need different comparables, and our team uses the relevant ones.

Why Crawley Owners Choose Our Service

Crawley has a particular mix of London and coast transport links, a growing population, and steady new build activity, which makes shared ownership values more sensitive to local detail. We look at how nearby developments affect pricing, and how Gatwick proximity plays into demand, rather than treating the town as one single market.

Our team has valued shared ownership properties across Crawley, from modern apartments close to the railway stations to family homes in settled residential neighbourhoods. Housing association requirements are not all the same, so we prepare reports to match the standards of your provider, whether that is a large national housing association or a smaller local one.

The market evidence in Crawley is generally supportive for valuations. The average property price is £370,000, with steady growth in terraced homes and flats, which has helped shared ownership properties remain attractive. Our valuers combine that data with the property’s own condition, layout, lease position and location, so the assessment can be relied on by lenders and housing associations.

  • RICS registered valuers
  • Local Crawley market expertise
  • Fast turnaround times
  • Competitive transparent pricing
  • Reports accepted by all major housing associations
  • Flexible appointment times
