If yours is not below, ask a real valuer and a valuer picks it up.
A valuer's signed opinion of what a property was worth on one nominated day, with the comparable sales and the reasoning set out beneath it. That day is frequently a date of death or a day decades back, and the report is written to whichever date the question actually turns on.
An appraisal is a free selling estimate, offered while an agent is competing for a listing, and unsigned. A valuation is prepared independently of any sale, effective as at a stated date, evidenced by settled sales, and signed by the valuer who formed the view.
In New South Wales, a valuer with the professional qualification and standing to have their opinion relied on. Their name and credentials appear on the report, which is exactly what allows a third party to act on it.
Yes. A valuer independent of your fund prepares and signs it, SISR 8.02B is the standard it is written to, and the comparable sales are attached rather than summarised, so an auditor can follow the figure back to its evidence.
The valuer who reached the opinion, named with their qualification. Not the model that gathered the evidence, and not anyone signing in their place. (from $550).
No. It is unsigned, so there is no independent opinion in it for an auditor, an accountant or the ATO to rely on. It is for deciding. On timing: a signed desktop report usually goes the same day and an Automated Market Assessment the next business day.
It is effective as at its date and does not stay current by itself. Where the recipient applies a currency period, that period governs, and your adviser will know which. A great deal of Mosman work is written to a date in the past in any case, where the question does not arise.
Yes. $169 for signed desktop reports, $79 for Automated Market Assessments. Inspection valuations start at $550, with the exact price confirmed at checkout before you pay, never after.
An advertised price is a marketing position, often a range set to attract interest. A valuation reports settled evidence. Mosman widens the gap because so many properties here have no genuine equivalent, which leaves a campaign free to reach for whatever comparison suits it.
Yes, at any point. We credit the $79 against the signed report whenever you upgrade.
No. A rates notice generally shows a land value, being the ground alone with nothing built on it, assessed for rating at a date the council set. A valuation assesses the whole property at the date you need. The two answer different questions and rarely agree.
