Probate Valuations

​

We understand that it can be a difficult and distressing time when arranging the estate of a loved one, but a full written probate valuation of the chattels is not only a legal necessity, but something that can save you a great deal of money and time. We have a very sympathetic approach and aim to make this process as simple as possible.

​

We will produce a full inventory of all items of value within a property, from furniture to jewellery and everything else in between, taking photographs of specific, higher value items which are kept on record for our clients.

​

All our valuations are based on realistic market prices, which is important because this is the figure used to calculate any inheritance tax liability in accordance with Section 160 of the Inheritance Tax Act and are HMRC compliant.

 

Once probate has been granted, we will be able to sell all of the saleable items in auction for you. We use our own in-house van, and together with local trusted carriers we can collect single items or clear whole properties.

​

We typically charge £300 + VAT for most small to medium sized properties. However this fee may be partially waived if items are being sold through us. You will receive printed hard and digital copies to provide to your solicitor and HMRC when filing for probate.
