  • Contact details - The customers’ name and property details that you provide when generating the report will be added to the cover of the report with a timestamp
  • Your property summary provides a snapshot of the property that is being valued and displays details about the property type, the total floor area, the year it was built, and the number of rooms. If there happens to be any missing information, it will be marked as unknown

 Best practice

Print the report and take it with you as a talking point to support your valuation and leave behind your brand. Alternatively, email the report directly to the prospect after your presentation as a follow up

  • The Recent activity near you section summarises nearby properties that are currently on the market, and their listing prices for additional context. Any properties that you are marketing are prioritised, to help demonstrate your local coverage
  • Your valuation powered by Hometrack outlines independent property valuation information based on Hometrack’s purpose built, automated valuation methodology. It’s comprised of a valuation for both sales and rental, price changes since last sale of property, gross rental yield and more. The valuation is intended to provide you with a starting point to aid price discussions. Once you have seen the property, you will be able to give an expert view on the recommended listing price
