The housing market could be back up and running in just a few weeks after the industry body for surveyors confirmed it will unveil ‘practical guidance’ to enable home valuations to restart safely.
The effective suspension of valuations in March slammed the brakes on mortgage offers and the property market, with surveyors unable to access homes due to lockdown and social distancing. This has meant that desktop valuations are the only viable option during the lockdown.
