Joint valuation by a surveyor

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am now acting for myself and have until noon tomorrow to 'give additions to the instructions to the valuer you want included' we jointly own a farm and don't agree on how it should be split. I have no idea on what points I'm supposed to add? I rang the surveyor that will be carrying out the valuation and just asked for any point's people would usually raise and he wouldn't help me. If anyone has any ideas on the kind of points I should be including I'd be so grateful. Many thanks for your help.

Are they valuing the land and buildings separately? What about the business?
Is it a ' red book' valuation?
Have they been asked to consider if there are options for dividing and selling the farm - ie split off some land and/or buildings. Do they have any recommendations about the best bits to use to realise capital if appropriate.
Do you want the farm to remain viable?

Thank you, it had to be submitted by lunchtime yesterday so I just did what I could think of. I appreciate your reply though 🙂

Hmm. Was this a court deadline or one set by other other side's solicitor? You should get a draft joint letter of instruction to approve. You can ask for changes to that if appropriate.
Is there scope for follow up questions to be raised once the valuation has been done? Check the order (if it is court ordered). As you are paying half it is not unreasonable that the valuation report should meet your needs as well. It should assist you in working out a fair settlement.
