I hope all is well with everyone.
I have today received 2 letters from Estate Agents both saying that they would value my property based on a forced sale at £110k, my current mortgage balance is around £109500, would the OR calculate my BI to be £500 in this case?
I have also got prints from Rightmove etc showing similar properties to mine for sale at around £110k - £105k! and a print from Zoopla placing the value at £108k will this be enough evidence for the OR to make their decision?
Thanks

Thats a valid point I dont think the figure includes the early redemption, however at the end of may the mortgage will go to standard variable rate and I guess wont had a redemption fee on it, so hopefully i can get it agreed before then.
I am keen to sort asap, as with nationwide reporting a slight increase in house prices I dont want to get pushed back into equity.
Do you feel I have enough supporting evidence?
Thanks again

Hope this helps
