    who is your existing lender?  

    Some lenders state the valuation on the portal page.  Some others state the LTV and the balance so you have to work backwards.   Others dont state it but you can call and ask.

    Hi all, our fixed rate ends soon and to help me get a rough guide on what products/equity we have i need to determine the value of the house. I know that the lender will have a valuation carried out but is anyone aware of websites that can give you an indication on what your house is worth (i.e. taking into consideration comparable sales etc).
    Can you see your existing lender's indexed valuation?

    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.
