The string class's valueOf() method is a static method.
Static methods need to be called like this: Class.staticMethodName() i.e. String.valueOf()
What you're currently doing is using an instance of a string to try to call a static method, which (as the error indicates) is not allowed.
bad:
selqenddate.valueOf(selqenddate)
good:
String.valueOf(selqenddate)
Of course, you don't need to use String.valueOf() at all here because selquarter is a string, and substringBetween() also returns a string.
Instead, you need to be using a method that takes a String as input, and gives you a Date as output such as Date.parse()

As the error suggests, you are trying to use a static method valueOffrom String class on an instance of a String named selqenddate, which is not allowed.
You are most likely are trying to construct a date from a string value, and that you will need to utilize the Date.valueOf()instead. Your code should look like something as below:
Date startdate =
(Date.valueOf(selqenddate))
.addMonths(-3)
.toStartOfMonth();
Note, there’s no property startOfMonth on Date class.

You are most likely are trying to construct a date from a string value, and that you will need to utilize the Date.valueOf()instead. Your code should look like something as below:

.addMonths(-3)
