my hubby is going bankrupt next week,where can i find an example of amounts allowed for expenditure? Also we had our house valued in 2007 for mortgage purposes, willthis be accepted by OR along with making a reduction which fits in with the fall in houseprices? Many thanks
you really need to get the house valued before you go Br.
The OR usually doesn't accept 3 month old valuations so 2007 is a no goer.
See if you can get an estate agent round.
Is the house in negative equity?

I know the valuation is too old but what I meant was , if they come back with a high valuation that I dont agree with can i refer to this last year and point out that the current valuation has to be lower due to the rash in prices? Thanks again
You can always appeal but I would suggest you get the homework / proof sorted before hand.
No need for surprises. get a local estate agent and check prices out on the internet with printed comparrisons.

As BR is on Tuesday we have no time to get agent out, but will still get one out after in case of any dispute. When we had valuation last year house was valued at £155000, redemptioon is currently approx £148000. I have done calculation on both Halifax and Nationwide house price index and they both put current valuation at £140000 - £146000 so can we use this to argue if need be.Also do they allow for sale costs when calculating equity?
