A CGT event needs the property's market value on one specific date. We assess a Footscray property as at that date, today or years back, and a certified practising valuer signs it.
A property with several dates in its history? Your accountant will nominate the one the return needs, and we prepare the figure to it.
In Footscray a property often changes what it is doing well before it changes hands, and it is the earlier date that ends up mattering. We prepare a figure to whichever date your accountant nominates, from the sales that had settled by then.
Where you lived there before you let it, the value on the very first day of letting is the number everything else is measured from.
Beneficiaries generally need market value at the date of death, whatever the property was being used for at the time. We prepare that figure to the date rather than to the arrangement.

It establishes the market value of the property at a specified capital gains tax event date. The signed report documents the evidence and methodology so your accountant can use the figure when applying the relevant CGT rules.
Use the date relevant to your CGT event, not automatically today's date or settlement date. It may be a contract date, date of death, first income-producing use or another date identified by your accountant or tax adviser.
Yes. The valuer reconstructs market conditions at the nominated historical date using sales and information available for that period. Older or unusual dates can require more research, so provide the date and any historical property information you hold.
A market value at the first income-producing date can be important where the home first used to produce income rule applies. Eligibility depends on your ownership and use history, so confirm the rule and valuation date with your accountant before ordering.
The relevant cost base treatment can depend on when the deceased acquired the property, how it was used and what happened after death. Date of death is common, but your accountant or estate adviser should identify the required valuation date for your circumstances.
Yes, a CGT valuation can establish market value where parties are not dealing at arm's length or no normal sale price exists. The valuation does not determine the tax outcome by itself, so obtain advice on the event and any available rollover or exemption.
The report records the subject property, valuation date, basis of value, methodology, comparable market evidence and the valuer's signed conclusion. This creates a supportable evidence trail, while the ATO retains the ability to review any valuation.
Many residential CGT valuations can be completed as desktop reports, particularly for historical dates. If the property is unusual, evidence is limited or the condition at the relevant date is disputed, the valuer may recommend more information or an inspected report.
No. It provides the market value component requested in the valuation instruction. Your accountant combines that figure with eligible acquisition, ownership, improvement and disposal costs and applies the tax rules to calculate the final gain or loss.
Provide the exact date, ownership details and any historical plans, photos, leases, renovation records or descriptions of the property's condition. This helps the valuer distinguish what existed at the event date from changes made later.
One fixed price, whether the date is last quarter or a long way behind you.
