We Value Independence

Most residential valuations are completed within 48-72 hours of the property inspection. The inspection itself typically takes 30-45 minutes. Commercial and complex properties may require additional time depending on size and complexity.

Valuation fees vary based on property type, location, and complexity. Residential valuations typically range from $500-$1,200, while commercial properties vary more widely. Contact us for a specific quote tailored to your property.

While not strictly necessary, it's helpful if you or someone familiar with the property can be present to provide access and answer questions about recent improvements, renovations, or unique features of the property.

A formal valuation is conducted by a registered valuer and meets specific professional standards required by banks and legal entities. An appraisal is typically a less formal estimate provided by real estate agents for marketing purposes.

Valuations are typically considered current for 3-6 months, though this can vary depending on market conditions and the purpose of the valuation. Some lenders may have specific requirements about the age of valuations.
