Common questions

Is the valuation really free?
Yes, completely free with no obligation. We generate revenue by connecting motivated sellers and buyers with estate agents so you never pay anything.
Will I be contacted by an estate agent?
Only if you want to be. You can indicate on the form whether you would like to hear from a local agent. If you just want the report that is fine.
How accurate is the valuation?
Our reports are based on Land Registry sold price data for your street combined with current market conditions. They give a strong indication of market value but are not a formal RICS valuation.
How quickly will I receive my report?
Within 24 hours by email. We review every report before sending to ensure the data is accurate for your specific property and street.
Is my data safe?
Yes. We are registered with the ICO, operate under GDPR, and you can request deletion of your data at any time by emailing agency@getleadnest.co.uk.
