Guildford & Woking Property Valuations
Fallows Surveyors | CGT | Probate | IHT
Our surveyors have long-standing links with Guildford and Woking, having both worked in the area earlier in their careers: Guy Peters as a valuer for Bruton Knowles, and Andrew Thomas, who established the Land Management team at Strutt & Parker (later BNP Paribas). Today they continue to serve clients across surrey, providing independent, RICS-regulated valuations for Probate, Capital Gains Tax, Inheritance Tax, matrimonial proceedings and secured lending.
The property markets here are diverse. In Guildford, we assess period townhouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments, along with larger detached houses in areas such as Burpham, Merrow and Shalford. In Woking, we see a mixture of commuter flats near the station, family homes in St John’s, Horsell and Hook Heath, and properties in newer developments like Brookwood and West Byfleet. Both towns also sit close to the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, where we also undertake valuations of equestrian properties, smallholdings and farmland.
Whether it is a Victorian townhouse in central Guildford, a commuter flat in Woking, or agricultural land near the Surrey Hills, our team brings detailed local knowledge, professional expertise and clear reporting tailored to your needs.
Capital Gains Tax Valuations
Private Residence Relief | Disposals | Transfers | Gifts
If you need a Capital Gains Tax valuation in Guildford, Woking, or the surrounding Surrey area, Fallows can provide the clarity you need. Our independent RICS valuations meet HMRC standards and give you solid evidence to support your tax return. Whether you’re selling a flat in central Woking, transferring a family home in Guildford, or managing a portfolio of properties across Surrey, we deliver clear, professional advice you can rely on.
CGT valuations often involve looking back at what a property was worth at a specific point in time, for example April 1982, or the date it was inherited or gifted. These retrospective valuations call for a careful mix of archived market data and professional judgement. At Fallows, we prepare valuations that are transparent, accurate, and able to withstand HMRC scrutiny if needed.
Guildford and Woking have some of Surrey’s most varied housing markets, from commuter apartments close to the stations, to period cottages in nearby villages, to larger detached houses in prime residential areas. We also regularly assist landlords and investors with rental portfolios, where accuracy and consistency across multiple properties are essential.

Valuations for divorce/ matimonial settlements
Serving Guildford and Woking
Dividing property fairly is often one of the biggest challenges during a divorce. At Fallows, we provide independent RICS valuations in Guildford, Woking and across Surrey to help keep the process clear and constructive.
In some cases, we are jointly instructed as a Single Joint Expert (SJE), producing one impartial valuation report that both parties and their solicitors can rely on. This approach often helps reduce conflict, its cheaper, and keeps discussions focused on evidence rather than emotion.
Where each side prefers to appoint their own valuer, we can prepare independent reports for one party. It’s usually best for both parties to decide on the route they wish to take before approaching a valuer, as early contact without agreement can sometimes make matters more complicated.
Our valuations are always based on reliable market evidence and prepared in line with RICS standards, giving confidence that the figures are accurate and defensible.
We provide matrimonial valuations on all types of property — from central Guildford apartments and commuter homes in Woking, to period cottages in surrounding Surrey villages and modern family houses in the suburbs.
