Getting a valuation on house

We are getting a valuation done on our property shortly and I was wondering does our house have to be in the state it would be if we were selling it?

If it's a valuation for a re-mortgage, no, the valuer is only interested if the property is sound enough and valuable enough to act as a security for your your lender.
If it's a valuation by an EA cos you are wanting to sell it's a good opportunity to get ideas from the EA of anything you can do to make it more saleable. Also if it's this, get 3 or 4 valuations before you decide who to sell with and what the asking price should be.

THANKS for your response! We are not sure whether to sell or extend so hopefully this will help us to decide.0
