Stamp Duty Valuation Australia
Independent, RICS-compliant stamp duty valuations accepted by all state revenue offices. Ensure your property transfer is assessed at the correct market value with a professionally prepared valuation report.
About This Purpose
What Is Stamp Duty Valuation?
A stamp duty valuation is an independent assessment of a property's market value, required when transferring property ownership in circumstances where the transaction price may not reflect true market conditions. This commonly arises in transfers between related parties, gifts of property, transfers below market value, or corporate restructures involving real property.
State revenue offices across Australia use the market value of the property, rather than the stated consideration, to calculate stamp duty (also known as transfer duty) when they believe the transfer price is not at arm's length. An independent valuation from a RICS-certified valuer provides authoritative evidence of the property's true market value at the date of transfer.
At Landmark Valuations, our stamp duty valuations are prepared in accordance with RICS Red Book Global Standards 2025 and are accepted by all state and territory revenue offices. Our valuers analyse comparable sales data, property condition, location, zoning, and other relevant factors to arrive at a well-supported market value determination. This ensures that stamp duty is calculated on a fair and accurate basis, potentially saving you from overpaying.

Next Steps
What happens after the valuation?
After your valuation is completed, you submit the RICS-compliant valuation report to your state or territory revenue office alongside the property transfer documentation. The revenue office uses the valuation to verify or determine the dutiable value of the transaction.
If the independent valuation supports a lower market value than the revenue office initially assessed, it provides strong grounds for a reassessment of the stamp duty liability. Our RICS-compliant reports carry significant weight with revenue authorities due to the rigorous methodology and professional standards they adhere to.
In cases where you wish to dispute an existing stamp duty assessment, the valuation report serves as authoritative evidence in your objection. Our valuers can also provide supporting documentation and, if necessary, expert testimony to assist with formal dispute resolution processes.
