What Happens During a Property Valuation with Jigsaw?

Whether you're a homeowner thinking of selling or a landlord exploring your rental potential, understanding what happens during a property valuation can give you confidence and clarity. At Jigsaw, our valuations are friendly, professional and completely tailored to your goals.

Here’s what to expect when you book a valuation with us:

A Warm Welcome & Initial Conversation

Before we look around the property, we take the time to understand your needs:

Selling? We’ll chat about your reasons for moving, your preferred timescales and any questions about the selling process.

Letting? We’ll discuss your long-term or short-term rental goals, target tenants and whether you’re looking for full management or tenant-find only.

A Walkthrough of the Property

Next, one of our experienced valuers will take a relaxed tour of your property. We’ll look at key features such as:

• Size and layout
• Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
• Condition and presentation
• Kitchen and bathroom quality
• Outdoor space and parking
• Any improvements or extensions
• Energy efficiency and features tenants/buyers prioritise

There’s no need to “stage” your home—we’re there to see its real potential.

Local Market Insight

Because we’re a local independent agent we know the local market inside out. We compare your property with:

• Similar homes currently on the market
• Recently sold prices in your area
• Local demand and achievable price
• Market trends and buyer/tenant preferences

This informs an accurate and realistic valuation you can trust.

Your Valuation: Sales or Lettings

Once we've gathered everything we need, we'll give you a clear figure and explain the reasoning behind it:

If You're Selling

You’ll receive:

• A suggested marketing price
• Advice on how to maximise your sale price

No Pressure—Just Honest Advice

There’s absolutely no obligation to proceed. Many clients use the valuation simply to plan ahead, even if they’re not ready to move or let right away. We’re here to support, not to pressure.
