Vickery Holman valuation team in Bristol were instructed by a lender to value a block of 4 flats in the popular Bristol suburb of Clifton. Their borrower wished to secure funding for the conversion of the property from a block of 4 flats into their own single private residence. Securing funding for refurbishment on behalf of a lender is a common instruction for our RICS Registered Valuers.
The purchase price had been agreed for the property, however, the initial valuation as a single residence did not meet the level required to secure development funding.
We provided a second valuation of the property for an alternative option, for the borrower to refurbish the existing flats and retain the block as an investment, rather than convert to a single residence for the borrower.
The new valuation met the criteria for the lender and lending was secured by the borrower for the refurbishment of the flats.
