AI summary
A registered valuation is the most accurate way to determine your property's worth without selling. Find a qualified professional through recommendations from your agent or lawyer, or by checking the official list of valuers with a current practicing certificate.
Costs average around $800+ GST but can vary based on property size, location, and complexity. Valuations are crucial for sellers setting a price, buyers making an offer, securing bank finance, or when an impartial assessment is needed.
