Full Valuation Report Certified Property Valuers Physical Site Inspection 90-Day Validity Professionally Insured

One report, many purposes

When you need a formal
valuation you can rely on.

This is our full-featured valuation. It includes a physical inspection of the property, a comprehensive written report, and is signed by a registered, insured valuer. You nominate the purpose when you order — tax, duty, lending, legal or personal — and the report is prepared and dated to suit it.

Tell us the purpose when you order

SMSF, capital gains tax, stamp duty, mortgage security, family law, estate, insurance, pre-purchase or pre-sale — the stated purpose determines how the report is written and which basis of value applies. It's a field on the order form, not an extra charge.

Retrospective dates available

CGT, duty and estate matters often need a value as at a past date — the date you acquired the property, the date it became income-producing, or the date of death. Nominate the date when you order and the valuer assesses to that date.

SMSF asset valuations

Support the market value of property held in a self-managed super fund, with a physical inspection behind the figure your auditor sees.

Capital gains tax

Establish a cost base or a disposal value for an ATO matter — including retrospective dates such as when a home first became income-producing.

Stamp & transfer duty

Related-party transfers, family transfers and off-market dealings assessed by a state revenue office need an independent market valuation.

Mortgage security

Refinancing, equity release or borrowing near an 80% LVR — an independent assessment of the security property before you approach a lender.

Family law & estates

Separation, deceased estates and probate all turn on an agreed market value. An independent report gives both sides the same starting point.

Pre-purchase & pre-sale

Know the independent value before you exchange or set an asking price — evidence rather than an agent appraisal.

Simple Process

How it works

See the full step-by-step ordering guide
1

Order and nominate the purpose

Submit the property address, tell us what the valuation is for (SMSF, CGT, stamp duty, mortgage security, family law, pre-purchase, etc.) and the date of valuation you need, then pay the flat fee. We'll confirm the scope and timeline before the valuer is assigned.

2

Independent valuer matched

Our algorithm assigns a certified property valuer with experience in your area and no connection to you or any other party in the transaction.

3

Physical site inspection

Your valuer attends the property in person, documents its condition, features, and any relevant factors, and photographs the property for the report.

4

Full report delivered

A comprehensive certified valuation report is delivered within 3–5 business days of the inspection. It's ready to hand to your accountant, auditor, solicitor, broker or lender immediately.

“

I used the certified valuation before making an offer on an apartment. It came in $40k below the asking price. I used that as leverage and saved money on the deal.

Our accountant needed a market valuation for the property in our SMSF. hovr had the valuer at the property within two days and the report the day after. Couldn't be easier.

I needed a retrospective value for a CGT calculation on a rental we'd moved out of years earlier. The report gave my accountant exactly what she asked for.

Common Questions

Quick answers

It is our full-featured valuation product, so it suits almost any purpose that calls for a formal market value: SMSF asset valuations, capital gains tax and other ATO matters, stamp duty and transfer duty assessments, mortgage security and refinancing, family law and separation, deceased estates and probate, insurance, and pre-purchase or pre-sale decisions. The valuer inspects the property in person and prepares the report to the purpose you nominate when you order.

For a certified valuation, yes. The physical inspection is what makes the report stand up when it is relied on by a third party — the valuer documents the actual condition, features, and any factors that a desktop assessment can't see. If your purpose doesn't require an inspection, the Desktop Valuation is a more cost-effective option.

The certified valuation includes a physical site inspection; the desktop does not. Both produce a full written report, but the certified report carries more weight with the ATO, lenders, insurers, courts and other formal processes because it is based on a direct inspection of the property rather than market data alone.

Yes — this is one of the most valuable uses of a certified valuation. You order it on the property you're planning to purchase. If the assessed value is materially below the purchase price, you have the information you need to renegotiate, adjust your deposit, or walk away before committing.

The total turnaround is typically 3–5 business days — including scheduling and conducting the site inspection, and preparing the report. For urgent matters, contact us before ordering and we'll advise on availability.

Yes. A certified valuation is a full market valuation by a registered valuer following a physical inspection, which is what the ATO, state revenue offices and auditors look for. Tell us the purpose when you order and the report is prepared and dated accordingly, including retrospective dates for CGT or duty matters. If your SMSF audit specifically requires the SISR Reg 8.02B compliance statement and a rental income assessment, the SMSF Valuation (from $185) is the purpose-built product; for deceased estates and probate, the Estate Valuation is tailored to that process.

A certified property valuation is a formal, written assessment of a property's market value conducted by a registered, insured valuer who physically inspects the property. In Australia, certified valuers must hold current registration with the Australian Property Institute (API) or the Australian Valuers Institute (AVI). The report includes a site inspection, comparable sales analysis, market commentary, and a signed valuer certification — making it the standard relied on by the ATO, state revenue offices, courts, auditors, insurers and lenders.

Certified property valuations in Australia typically cost from $450 through hovr, compared to $600–$1,200+ for traditional valuation firms. The final price depends on the property type, location, complexity, and whether any retrospective or specialist analysis is required. hovr confirms the price before you pay — no surprises at checkout.

Yes. When a bank's valuation comes in below the purchase price or refinance expectation, an independent certified valuation from an unaffiliated registered valuer provides a second, evidence-based assessment. Your broker can submit it to the lender as grounds for review, or you can use it to approach another lender or negotiate the purchase price with the vendor. A certified valuation — with a full physical inspection — carries more weight than a desktop report in these situations. Full guide: what to do when your bank valuation is too low →
