Frequently Asked Questions
The bank needs an independent opinion of market value to confirm the property is good security for the loan. It also sets how much the bank will lend against it.
No. Your bank will only accept a report from a valuer on its approved panel. Plum is on the panel of every Cayman retail bank.
The borrower normally pays the valuation fee, even though the report is addressed to the bank.
We will re-address the report to another panel bank at no extra charge.
The bank will usually lend against the lower figure, so you may need a larger deposit or to renegotiate the price. We are happy to explain the evidence behind our figure.
In most cases, yes. As the borrower you can ask your bank for a copy, or ask us when you instruct.
