Accounting Valuations

We are able to carry out valuations for use in financial statements for tax purposes in accordance with the RICS Red Book.

Capital Gains Tax Valuations

We undertake valuations for Capital Gains Tax calculation purposes, for submission to the Inland Revenue and Valuation Office Agency. These valuations are often retrospective in nature and are a specialist area of valuation.

Commercial Building Survey

This is a comprehensive report which is recommended when acquiring commercial property. The survey will cover every visible component and will include more minor defects than covered by a commercial valuation inspection.

Energy Performance Certificates

An EU directive requires both commercial and residential properties, at the time of sale and letting to be provided with an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC). We have fully trained surveyors able to provide both commercial and residential assessments.

Insurance Reinstatement Valuations

It is imperative you undertake regular insurance valuations to ensure you are neither under or over-insured. If you are under-insured, you run the risk of not being able to reinstate the building; or potentially be paying a higher insurance premium than necessary if over-insured.

Pension Fund Valuations

If acquiring a property through a self-invested pension plan (SIPP), a rental and capital valuation will be required by the Pension Fund. Regular revaluations are also required and if we carry these out on a retained basis, discounted fee scales are available.

Portfolio Valuations

Arnold & Baldwin strive to maximise the value of your assets. We have the skills and experience to provide you with an accurate valuation of both commercial and residential properties within your diverse portfolio. We can also provide you with sensitivity analysis, along with acquisition and disposal advice.

Secured Lending Valuations

Our team of RICS Registered Valuers carry out valuations for a wide range of high street Banks and other commercial lending institutions. The Bank will require an assessment of market value to ensure security for their loan, together with providing you, as a prudent purchaser, the reassurance you are paying a fair price.

Schedules of Condition

A Schedule of Condition should be undertaken at the start of any new commercial lease. This includes an inspection of the property to document its condition, clearly identifying any potential issues thus minimising dilapidations liabilities. Arnold & Baldwin provide a DVD recording of the building to provide irrefutable evidence.
