What is a current market property valuation?
A current market property valuation will determine property value in its present state in relation to current market conditions. As such, a current market property valuation is only valid for 90 days from the date of inspection to maintain an accurate and fair determination of value.
A current market property valuation can be used to inform on a variety of property related decisions including, determination of equity, financial reporting and to minimise investment risk. A current market property valuation is often used to comply with legal, taxation and governing requirements while remaining independent and free from bias.
When is a property valuation needed?
An independent property valuation is required to adhere to any kind of legal or legislative procedure or to comply with taxation standards. It is also highly recommended to inform on any property related decision to ascertain certainty or minimise risk associated with the subject property.
As such, a property valuation is required for a number of purposes, and is a certified document backed by industry expertise and qualifications to adhere to any kind of legislative requirements. This ensures a comprehensive analysis backed by supported evidence and reliable, professional advice.
How does an independent property valuation differ from a bank valuation?
While a property valuation and a bank valuation both aim to calculate value, each have a different purpose behind it. As such, a bank valuation is completed on behalf of the lender to measure the level of risk in approving the loan and to ascertain loan security. A bank valuation is usually more conservative because the lender wants to minimise their risk should the loan be defaulted.
An independent property valuation aims to determine the fair market value of the subject property based on the objective research and is completed by an independent valuer. A property valuation guarantees complete transparency and professionalism without any kind of conflict of interest.
What is the process of becoming an API certified property valuer?
In order to become an API certified property valuer, one must gain accreditation through the Australian Property Institute (API). As such, a property valuer must undergo tertiary qualifications, a two-year traineeship of industry practice, and sit a professional interview before being certified to value property.
Overall, it takes an average of six years to become an API certified property valuer, and as such, become one of the most highly regarded property valuers in Australia. An API certified property valuer therefore has the industry knowledge and expertise to perform independent valuation services across any property type for a variety of purposes.
What should you look for when employing a property valuer?
When seeking out the services of a property valuer, it’s important reach out to a valuer who has been trained and registered with the Australian Property Institute (API). This will ensure that the valuation report will be based on objective data and reflects a fair and accurate value determined by standardised methodologies and procedures.
In turn, it’s also paramount to employ a property valuer with an extensive background in your local area. As such, you will receive a valuation based on reliable, trusted advice by an industry expert. An API qualified property valuer will ensure an independent, accurate and fair market value of any given subject property.
What does a property valuation report include?
A certified property valuation involves extensive research to provide a compilation of evidence via property databases to determine the fair market value of the subject property. As such, this is calculated by investigating factors such as underlying land value, property condition, comparable sales, market volatility, environmental risk factors, and location.
A property valuation can only be completed and signed off by a certified valuer and will take into account over 200 variables associated with the property and the local property market. As a result, a property valuation report is filled with extensive evidence and research to provide an accurate market value.
What is the difference between a real estate agent and a property valuer?
A real estate agent is professional specialising in the buy and sell process of property across multiple property types. As such, while a real estate agent has knowledge of the local property market, they do not hold the qualifications to provide a certified valuation report. As such, a real estate agent will often hold a conflict of interest in wanting to list the property and will provide an estimated value that cannot be used in any kind of legislative setting.
On the other hand, a property valuer is a certified industry professional who is educated and qualified in valuing real property. As such, a property valuer will provide a valuation with the sole purpose of determining the fair market value of the subject property without agenda or conflict of interest. Therefore, a property valuer can provide a greater certainty with any pre-purchase or pre-sale related decision.
What are the benefits of using an independent property valuer?
A certified property valuer will provide a comprehensive and objective analysis of the property without agenda or bias for a variety of purposes across residential, commercial, and industrial property types.
As such, an independent property valuer will guarantee a certified valuation based on extensive research and compilation of evidence within a sworn valuation report. As such, an independent property valuer is an industry qualified expert in property that can provide valuations for any kind of legislative purpose.
