Property value is easy to evaluate.

Totally agree Mick! That said this is how crazy the situation is - you could live in a 1 million house ( or even a 10 million mansion ) but if you have no income or savings of around 20K plus you would be exempt from paying council tax! So assets don’t come into it - only income and savings. Mad! Then when you have to go into a care home - you can be made to sell your property to fund the cost!!!
