Free property valuation in Crawley and West Sussex

A house valuation is a simple process, in which a Homes Partnership expert will use their intimate knowledge of the local market to accurately identify how much your house is worth. A valuer will consider a property’s condition, location, layout and size to determine a price, as well as any unique features. These house valuations are a free service and provide you with the information you need to kick start your house selling journey.

Deciding on which type of property valuation you need depends on what you are planning to do. If you are planning to sell or let your property, then you’ll require our free home valuation service; an accurate, in-person valuation with a local expert who knows the market intimately. This will provide you with all the information you’ll need to kick start your home selling journey. If you want to start house hunting, or are considering renovating, then our free online house valuation is the best route to give you an estimate of your property’s value.

Completing a house valuation is important for a number of reasons. Receiving a professional opinion on the value of your property will give you the information you need to price your property appropriately when you enter the market, whether you are selling or letting. Should you plan to purchase another property, and require a mortgage, the estimate price of your property will considerably influence the amount you can borrow.

Our property valuations are completely free of charge and come with no obligation to sell or let with us afterwards. This applies to both our instant online valuation and our in-home valuation. The only paid valuation we offer is a formal probate valuation where the property is not going on to be sold, which carries a small fee due to the additional reporting and HMRC compliance requirements.

An in-home property valuation typically takes 45–60 minutes. We’ll measure each room, take notes on the property’s condition and unique features, ask about any recent improvements or planning consents, and then explain our recommended marketing price. You’ll receive a written valuation report within 1–2 working days with our pricing rationale and a market analysis specific to your road or area.

Our online valuation uses comparable sold-price data and current market trends to give you a quick estimate within minutes — useful for an initial idea or refinancing. Our in-home valuation involves a member of our team visiting your property, factoring in its specific condition, layout, unique features, and the local micro-market. For an accurate selling or letting price, the in-home valuation is significantly more reliable.

No major prep is needed — we’re looking at the property’s bones and potential, not the housework. That said, a tidy home does help us see room sizes and natural light more clearly, and gives us a better sense of what the property will photograph like once it’s on the market. Just let us in as you’d let in a friend.

Your valuation is conducted by one of our qualified senior team members — including Managing Director Adam Charlton (MNAEA, MARLA, DipSP), Head of Appraisals Paul, or a senior valuer with at least 10 years of local property experience. Every valuer at Homes Partnership has deep knowledge of the Crawley and West Sussex market — many of our team have lived locally their whole lives.

Yes, though a probate valuation works differently from the appraisal described on this page. For probate, the figure has to reflect the open market value on the date of death rather than today, and it needs to stand up to HMRC rather than simply guide a marketing price. We handle these regularly and sensitively, and if the family decides to sell we can take the whole thing through to completion. There is a full explanation, including how long probate usually takes and whether a house can be sold before it is granted, on our probate page. We also carry out matrimonial and divorce valuations on the same confidential basis.

No. Our valuations come with absolutely no obligation. We’ll give you our honest assessment of your property’s value and our recommended marketing strategy, and we’ll leave you to make your decision in your own time. If you choose another agent, that’s fine — over 80% of people who meet us choose to work with us, but the other 20% are no less welcome to return whenever they’re ready.

On the most recent Land Registry figures, released in September 2026 and covering July, the average sold price in Crawley was £332,000, up 2.3% on the year. By property type that breaks down as roughly £666,000 for detached homes, £426,000 for semi-detached, £342,000 for terraced and £211,000 for flats and maisonettes. Semi-detached homes are currently the strongest performer, up 3.7% year on year.

Those are averages across the whole town, though, and your street matters considerably more than the town does. A valuation looks at what has actually sold within a few hundred yards of you in the last few months. We publish an updated Crawley market report every month if you would like to follow the trend.

A sales valuation estimates what a buyer would pay for your property. A rental valuation estimates what a tenant would pay each month, which is a different calculation using different evidence.

For a sales figure we look at comparable sold prices, current competition and how long similar homes are taking to sell. For a rental figure we look at what comparable properties are actually letting for right now, how many applicants they are attracting, how long they sat before letting, and what the current compliance obligations will cost you as a landlord. Both are free, both take around 45 minutes, and if you are undecided between selling and letting we will happily give you both figures in the same visit so you can compare them properly.
