Why You Should Have Your Home Re-Valued Every 6 Months 🏡📈

Why You Should Have Your Home Re-Valued Every 6 Months 🏡📈

We visited you around six months ago, and unless we’ve missed something, you haven’t come to market yet! 🤔 If you're still considering a move—or just want to keep your options open—now is the perfect time to get an updated valuation. Here’s why:

1️⃣ The Market Moves Fast—So Should You ⏳📊

Property values shift constantly, and the valuation you had six months ago may no longer be accurate. Whether prices have risen or dipped, having up-to-date information ensures you’re making informed decisions. If you’re thinking about moving in the next 12 months, now is the time to check where you stand.

💡 Our expert team keeps a close eye on market trends, so we can give you the most accurate picture of your home’s worth.

2️⃣ Building Equity—Could You Invest? 💰🏠

Your home might be worth more than you think! A revaluation could reveal an increase in equity, which might allow you to:

✔️ Upgrade to a bigger home
✔️ Secure a better mortgage deal
✔️ Invest in a second property 🏡➡️🏡

We’re not saying you should rush into buying a new home, but knowing your financial position gives you options—and that’s always a smart move.

3️⃣ Planning Home Improvements? Know Your ROI 🔨✨

Thinking of a kitchen extension, loft conversion, or adding a home office? A valuation can help you understand:

📌 Whether your planned renovation will add value or risk overcapitalising
📌 What features buyers in your area are looking for
📌 If your project aligns with local demand (e.g. turning a third bedroom into a dressing room might reduce value in a family-focused area 👶🏼🏡)

Before you spend thousands, let’s chat about what really adds value in your area.

4️⃣ Re-Mortgaging? Know Your Worth 💳🏦

If your mortgage renewal is coming up, knowing the true value of your home puts you in a stronger position to:

✔️ Negotiate a better deal with your lender
✔️ Reduce your loan-to-value (LTV) ratio for better interest rates
✔️ Access additional funds for home improvements or investments

Lenders will conduct their own valuation, so getting an accurate figure from a professional is crucial before you start discussions.

Taking your first step into selling can feel like stepping into a swirl of opinions — family advice, colleague stories, neighbour tales of “quick” sales or “nightmare” chains. It’s a lot 😅

As we move into the final months of the year, we at ­Keystone have taken a deep dive into the latest figures for the Flintshire market — and our valuer duo, Ben and Sammie, have been busy analysing what’s happening with instructions, viewings and sales for October. Here’s what they found — and what it means for you.

If you’re hoping to move in the next few months, it’s tempting to believe the best homes appear first on the portals. But the truth is, the most switched-on buyers — the kind of proactive, organised people we work with every day — are seeing homes long before they ever reach Rightmove, Zoopla or OnTheMarket 👀✨

Buying your first home is exciting — but it can also feel daunting, especially in a fast-moving market like Flintshire. From average prices to mortgage rates and practical tips, here’s what first-time buyers need to know in 2025.
