Are you looking for the Cheapest Price or a Budget Price Valuation?

READ THIS BEFORE YOU DECIDE

If you are, sorry our valuations are not the cheapest. Before you remove us from your list of valuers consider this. Valuations are professional services and professional services are carried out by professionals whose fees are based on their experience, level of expertise and the amount of time they take to complete a job. 

If  you  ordered  the  cheapest  price valuation,  in  all  likelihood  you  will  be getting what  you  pay  for.  Either your valuation  will  be  carried  out  by  a  junior valuer (who  has  limited  property valuation experience)  or  a large  part  of  the valuation process  will  be  done  by support staff  who  are  non-valuers.  Another  way someone  can  offer  the  cheapest or  a budget  price  valuation  is  by  cutting corners,  such  as  providing  a shorter valuation  report  with  less  details,  or one that arrives at the value figure based on a smaller number of value attributes.

What’s the Market Value of Your Home? Is there a Difference between a Free Appraisal by a Real Estate Agent versus a Paid Valuation by a Property Valuer?

Appraisal?   Valuation?   What’s   the   difference?   In   the   U.S.A.   they   call it   an   appraisal,   but   in   Australia   and Commonwealth  countries  it’s called  a valuation.  The  Yanks  like  to  be  different. They  are still using feet, gallons and acres, while most countries of the world use metres, litres and hectares. So  why  is an Australian  Real  Estate  Agent  calling  a valuation an  appraisal?  Well,  it’s  because in    Australia,  a  Real Estate Agent’s appraisal is NOT similar to a valuation prepared by a property valuer. I’m sure  you have  seen one  of  those  coloured  leaflets in  your  letterbox from  your  local  Real Estate  Agent  with  an offer  for  a “FREE APPRAISAL”;  or offers  such  as  “Find  out what  your  home  is  worth?”  or more daringly,  “What’s the value  of  your home?”  For  those  of  you  who have  not taken  up  such  offers  before,  what  do you think  you’ll  be getting?  [MORE…..]
