Hi kanrent,

Yes it would be prudent to obtain an accurate valuation from a reputable source as close to 05 April 2015 as possible.

HMRC have only stated that it is the responsibility of the taxpayer to ensure that the property is valued accurately for capital gains tax purposes.

Happy to help if required so please do not hesitate to contact me should you need further assistance.
Kind regards,

Nikki Sizer

I am in the same situation, a local estate agent made a valuation for me, for free.

On the understanding that I may use them when I eventually sell the house.

Hello POOLE77,

Yes, that is often the case with Estate Agents and will suffice for the purpose of capital gains tax.
