smsfpropertyvaluationready.com.au explains what a self-managed super fund must do about the property it holds: report it at market value each year under SIS Regulation 8.02B, with evidence an auditor will accept. The guides on how often, which methods, and what auditors expect are free to read and written for trustees and their accountants.
Who runs it#
This site is operated by Valuation Ready (ABN 65 397 914 685), an Australian property-valuation service that also operates valuationready.com.au and the sister sites named in the footer of every page. One operator, several doors: each site is written for one audience and one question, and all of them lead to the same service.
How a valuation is produced#
Valuation Ready is building a national panel of independent qualified valuers so that a signed valuation can be arranged for a property in any state or territory through a valuer licensed there. Each report is prepared and signed by the valuer, who is responsible for the opinion of value. The valuer’s fee is for preparing the report and is not tied to the figure reached, so there is no incentive to arrive at a higher or lower number.
Independence and standards#
A signed valuation gives you a documented market-value figure with an evidence trail: the comparable sales, the method, and the valuer’s signature and date. Reports are prepared to an ATO-acceptable standard for market-value evidence. There is no such thing as an “ATO-approved” valuation, and you will not read that phrase here. Independence is not decoration for an SMSF valuation: an auditor is looking for evidence produced by someone with no stake in the figure, and that is what a signed report from an unrelated valuer is.
What we do not do#
This site provides general information and service intake. It is not tax, legal or financial advice. Ask a registered tax professional or licensed adviser how a valuation applies to your circumstances. We provide the valuation, not advice about your fund, and we do not act as auditor.
