What is a property valuer?
A registered property valuer is a qualified professional who assesses the value of land and/or buildings. A valuer’s report may be used to determine a sale or purchase price, mortgage finance or be used for insurance purposes.
In general, banks will only accept valuations from registered property valuers.
What will a property valuer look at when assessing a property’s value?
*The general condition of the interior and exterior
*The dimensions of the property (the building and section)
*The age of the house and any renovations completed
*The type of construction and materials used
*The site and any potential issues or risks such as flooding, drainage or erosion
*The surrounding area and environment, including factors such as density of the neighbourhood, zoning and future zoning
*The locality of amenities including schools, shopping facilities and public transport
*The title, LIM and anything of note on either document
*Market analysis including recent sales and values of comparable properties in the vicinity
Professional property valuers generally provide the following types of reports for both residential and commercial properties:

What are the benefits of engaging a property valuer?
A qualified and experienced property valuer will be able to provide an accurate assessment of a property’s value based on research, site visits and inspections of the building. The report a valuer provides can be invaluable in decision-making processes around the sale or purchase of a property, the value of a lease, the cost of a proposed project compared to expected revenue, as well as for the compilation of insurance policies that accurately reflect the current value of a property.
