Why is it important to collect property specific information before getting a quote?

Video Transcript

Being provided with more information at the outset of a valuation quotation allows two things. It allows VAS to find the most suitable valuation firm to carry out the valuation, who have the right credentials and experience. Secondly, it allows a valuer to provide accurate fees that can assess the complexity of the property and valuation in advance. Ultimately, this stops any delays in the process, as the valuer is totally aware of the property and what is involved to carry out the job. It stops friction in the valuation process of VAS not having to find another valuer or the valuer wanting more fees at a later date if the information provided turns out to be incorrect.
