Your valuer
30+ years valuing Melbourne property
Tom started in Melbourne real estate in the 1980s and moved into valuation after completing a Bachelor of Business (Property) at RMIT. Tom has valued everything from beach boxes and ski lodges to historic University of Melbourne buildings and recycling depots.
There are no office staff or managers between you and your valuer. That keeps prices competitive, and it means you can ask questions before you commit, so you only pay for the report you actually need.

Common questions
How much does a property valuation cost?
Desktop valuations of residential property under $1M start from $425 + GST. Kerbside and full-inspection residential valuations start from $500 + GST, and commercial and industrial valuations from $975 + GST. The final price depends on the property and the purpose, so call 0407 835 388 for a quote before you book.
Which type of valuation do I need?
It depends on who will rely on the report. Desktop valuations suit pre-sale and pre-purchase guidance for residential property under $1M. Kerbside valuations are often used for SMSF and capital gains tax reporting. Family law, estates, stamp duty and insurance usually call for a full inspection. Compare the options.
Is an agent appraisal the same as a valuation?
No. An agent's appraisal is an opinion of likely selling price, usually offered while seeking a listing. A valuation by a Certified Practising Valuer is an independent report that courts, the ATO and the SRO accept. Read the difference.
Will the ATO, SRO or a court accept the report?
Tom’s reports are accepted by the courts, the Australian Taxation Office, the State Revenue Office, municipal councils and professional bodies. If your lawyer, accountant or auditor has specific requirements, mention them when you enquire so the report covers them.
Can you value a property as at a past date?
Yes. Retrospective valuations are common for capital gains tax, deceased estates and family law. Tom values the property as it was at the date required, using sales evidence from around that time. How retrospective valuations work.
Do you value commercial and industrial property?
Yes. Commercial and industrial valuations start from $975 + GST with a long-form report and a 7-day turnaround, for purposes including market value, rental reviews, SMSF, insurance and pre-sale or pre-purchase advice.
Not sure which valuation you need?
Call Tom before you book. You will get a straight answer on the right report for your situation and what it costs.
