Free Farm Valuation Week 2026
What's yours worth? Take advantage of our popular, annual Free Farm Valuation Week running from 2nd to 6th February 2026
What's your farm worth?
Whilst other agents may have emulated, Symonds & Sampson were the first to offer Free Farm Valuation Week almost 20 years ago. This popular initiative offers an open invitation to farmers and landowners to discuss potential sales of farms, estates, smallholdings, land and rural properties, as Head of Farm Agency, Andrew Tuffin explains.
“Our dedicated farm agency experts across the south and west of the country are experienced in selling the whole spectrum of rural properties, from estates to paddocks and commercial farms to development opportunities.
"Trade was remarkably resilient in 2025. We saw an increase of approximately 15% in the supply of land and farms to the market in our region. Despite political and budget uncertainties, poor grain prices and falling milk prices, demand remained high due to several years of undersupply.
“Looking forward to 2026, we predict the supply of land to continue at a level above recent years, whilst lower interest rates and the recent increase in the inheritance tax relief threshold will add optimism to the market."
Whether you have one acre or a thousand acres, in Oxfordshire, Cornwall or anywhere in between, we would be delighted to visit you to advise on a marketing strategy and values.
We know the market, we know the buyers, we did it first, and we still do it best. Please contact Andrew or our farm agents in your nearest office (below) to take advantage of our Free Farm Valuation Week, running from 2nd to 6th February 2026.
