I have 7 days to prove my house is worth more than their selling it for.

My house has recently been repossesed. The house is for sale at estate agents for £20,000 but I still owe £30,000 mortgage. Before the lenders changed the door locks I had 2 free valuations from different estate agents stating that they would but the house on the market for £34,000. Are these sufficiant documents to argue a shortfall or do I need to pay for a surveyour to value the house. The lenders will let me have my keys back for 7 days to remove left belonings. If I need to get a surveyour,how many surveys do I need, where should I get one from, what should I tell the surveyour is happening with the house (do I pretend I'm buying the house or tell him the truth & that I whant the document to argue a future shortfall}.?
