How to get current home value from Barclays

Hi! 

We're looking to remortgage in November and want to pay off enough that we can hit the 75% ltv rate. Does anyone know how we go about finding the value of our property as online valuations seem way off. 

We're with Barclays and have been told it will be a desktop valuation as it's only a rate switch. 

Thank you

    Don't know about Barclays, but with Yorkshire Building Society I can see their guess at LTV in the online account.

    If I know the balance and their estimated LTV, I can calculate the property value that they guess - it isn't the purchase price and I've had no rate switch since I bought to trigger a revaluation, so it must be "live" in some manner.

    Deal via a mortgage broker and they can sort all of this for you.

    We're staying with our current lender so I don't need a broker. Just want to know how much I need to pay in overpayments.

    Unfortunately I can't see this in the Barclays account. Appreciate the reply though.

    If the rate is better than that you are erning on your savings. Overpay by as much as you comfortably afford.

    If you dont have a Broker, phone the Lender and ask them.

    broker can do product switch for you
    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.

    HSBC had it online for me, and the advisor told me as well. I think if you call them, they will tell you. The one I got appears static (i.e. at the time of the mortgage request), so calling them will trigger desktop revaluation.
    Note:

    Mortgage debt start date = 25/10/2024 = 175k (5.44% interest rate, 20 year term)
    Q4/2024 = 139.3k (5.19% interest rate)
    Q1/2025 = 125.3k (interest rate dropped from 5.19% - 4.69%)
    Q2/2025 = 119.9K

    If you had used a Broker you would have been sorted already
