Portsmouth & Southsea Valuation Surveyors

We are Fallows (Valuation) Surveyors LLP

We regularly undertake valuations across Portsmouth, a city with a distinctive property market shaped by its naval heritage, university presence and high proportion of rental housing. Many of our instructions come from investment landlords, with portfolios of terraced houses and HMOs in areas such as Southsea, Fratton and North End, reflecting the city’s strong demand for rental accommodation. We also undertake significant amounts of lease extension and enfranchisement work for both flat owners and freeholders, particularly in the numerous converted Victorian and Edwardian buildings around Southsea.

Portsmouth’s property market is highly varied: from modern waterfront apartments at Gunwharf Quays and Port Solent, to period houses near the Historic Dockyard, and family homes in Copnor and Drayton. The city’s island geography, conservation zones and large student population all play a role in shaping values and influencing demand.

Our RICS-regulated valuers provide independent Red Book reports for a wide range of purposes including Probate, Capital Gains Tax, Inheritance Tax, matrimonial proceedings and secured lending. Whether you require a valuation of a leasehold flat in Southsea, a portfolio of buy-to-let houses in Fratton, or a waterside apartment overlooking the harbour, we bring detailed local knowledge and clear, professional advice.

Capital Gains Tax Valuations

....including historical valuations for land and property in the Horsham area

If you need a Capital Gains Tax (CGT) valuation in Portsmouth or the wider Hampshire area, Fallows can help. We provide professional RICS valuations that meet HMRC requirements and give you the clear evidence you need for your tax return. Whether you’re selling a single property in Portsmouth, passing assets on to family, or managing a larger portfolio across Hampshire, our valuers offer independent advice you can trust.

Sometimes, CGT valuations require a historical assessment too. We are able to udnertake these (they're often at 1982 or later). These retrospective assessments require a careful balance of archived market data and professional judgement. At Fallows, we’re experienced in producing valuations that are accurate, transparent, and able to stand up to HMRC scrutiny if needed.

We know Portsmouth and the surrounding property market, but we also have access to advanced databases to help ensure we have the appropiate evidence to support our valuations.

Probate Valuations in Portsmouth and Southsea

At Fallows, we carry out professional probate valuations in Portsmouth and across Hampshire. Our surveyors prepare RICS Red Book reports that meet HMRC requirements and are trusted by local solicitors for their accuracy and independence. Whether it’s a family home, a second property, a portfolio of rentals, or farmland, we provide clear, compliant valuations in Portsmouth, Southsea, Cosham, Port Solent, Havant, Waterlooville, Emsworth, and Hayling Island.

We work closely with families, executors, and solicitors to make sure the process runs as smoothly as possible.

With extensive experience across Hampshire, we understand the Portsmouth property market and the way values differ between coastal areas, suburban neighbourhoods, and surrounding towns. This local knowledge, combined with our Red Book standards, ensures our reports are compliant and robust.

Valuations for divorce/ matimonial settlements

Fallows can act as single joint experts

Fallows provide independent RICS valuations in Portsmouth and across Hampshire for divorce and matrimonial proceedings.

When property is part of a divorce settlement, both parties usually need to agree on its value. In many cases, we are appointed as Single Joint Experts (SJE), preparing one impartial report that both sides can rely on.

If each party chooses to instruct their own valuer instead, we can also prepare a report for one side only. It’s important for both parties to agree on the approach first—whether that’s a joint instruction or separate reports—before speaking to a valuer. Getting this wrong early on can sometimes cause unnecessary tension.

Our balanced and independent approach helps to reduce disputes and ensures discussions stay focused on clear market evidence rather than opinion.

With years of experience working across Hampshire, we have valued all types of property in Portsmouth, Southsea, Cosham, Port Solent, Havant, Waterlooville, Emsworth, and Hayling Island.

Our Unique Selling Points....

We are not Estate Agents

Estate Agents can be conflicted when giving valuation advice, because the work might lead to a subsequent sale or instruction. We are Chartered Surveyors and therefore give trust and compliant reports to teh standards required by the RICS and HMRC.

HMRC Acceptance Guarantee

We will guarantee that our reports are to the standard demanded by HMRC and therefore acceptable to them. Please note that this does mean that valuation figure will also be accepted, but a fully compliant report is less likely to be queried.


Our Smart Map helps you and us

Our Smart Map uses Land Registry data. You can zoom in, see your property boundaries, select your property, and then that gets sent to Fallows. We can then quickly determine whether you live in a cottage or a castle and can therefore give you a genuine fixed price quotation. No awkward telephone calls trying to explain the piece of land you might own, and the comfort of receiving a fixed price quotation.



Competative Pricing

We are a small firm with low overheads. We only specialise in valuations, and that means we can justify several valuation specific subscriptions that helps to speed up our background checks and research. For example, in just a few seconds, we can display maps showing current and historical planning applciations and development allocations on or around a property. It's a process that otherwise takes many hours. This means we can provide a comprehensive valuation service, at a affordable and fixed price.

Experience in Land

There are very few valuation firms with experience in land, whether that's development land, farmland or equestrian. One of our Partners is a Land Agent with over 20 years experience in valuing and managing agricultural property including complusory purchase compensation, agricultural tenancies and valuing agricultural property relief.



Free Drone Video

Whenever we visit a property, a Valuer will always have a drone with them. Sometimes these are useful to a get a better look a roofs or extensive land areas. We provide the video footage to you free-of-charge.
