About This Purpose

What Is Property Valuation for Mortgage?

A mortgage valuation is a professional assessment of a property's market value, required by lenders before they approve a home loan. The valuation determines the property's worth on the open market, which the lender uses to calculate the loan-to-value ratio (LVR) and the maximum amount they are willing to lend against the security.

Unlike a real estate appraisal or market estimate, a mortgage valuation is conducted by a qualified, independent valuer who follows strict professional standards. At Landmark Valuations, every mortgage valuation is prepared in accordance with RICS Red Book Global Standards 2025 and the International Valuation Standards (IVS), ensuring your report is accepted by all major Australian banks and financial institutions.

Our valuers consider factors including the property's condition, location, comparable sales data, zoning, and any features that may affect its market value. The result is a comprehensive report that gives your lender confidence in the security value and helps you move through the loan approval process efficiently.

Next Steps

What happens after the valuation?

Once the valuation is complete, your bank or lender receives the RICS-compliant valuation report directly. They assess the report against their internal lending criteria and use the determined market value to calculate the maximum loan amount they are willing to offer.

A RICS-compliant report is recognised by all major Australian banks and financial institutions, which can significantly speed up the approval process. If any queries arise, our valuers are available to discuss the methodology and findings with your lender's credit team.

You will also receive a copy of the valuation report for your own records. This document provides a detailed analysis of your property's market value that can be useful for future financial planning, insurance purposes, or subsequent property transactions.
