How to value household and personal goods
You must value all goods based on the price you would expect them to sell for in the open market.
For household and personal goods, sales often take place at auction. They may also be advertised in a local newspaper or sold at a car boot sale.
A valuation for a forced sale will not be accepted.
A valuation for insurance might only reflect the cost to replace the items and not give a realistic price for what the items could be sold for.
You may want to consider having any individual items worth more than 拢1,500 valued.
If you have a professional valuation
You can only use a professional or specialist valuation if the instructions to the valuer were for an open market sale.
You must attach a copy of any valuation with this form.

- make and exact model
