Separation Property Valuation
De facto and separation property valuations for asset division in NSW. Our certified valuers provide independent assessments accepted by courts, the ATO, and all major lenders.
"Every separation valuation we prepare is personally inspected by a Certified Practising Valuer. We provide independent, unbiased assessments that you can rely on for your legal, financial, or tax matter."
— Malcolm Craig CPV, Director
De facto relationship separations in NSW are governed by the same property laws as formal marriages, meaning that when a de facto relationship ends, both parties may have an entitlement to shared property assets — and an independent valuation is usually the first step in determining those entitlements.
Our separation valuations are provided by Certified Practising Valuers (CPVs) who understand both the legal context and the emotional difficulty of relationship breakdowns. We provide professional, empathetic service with a focus on delivering clear, well-reasoned valuations that both parties can accept.
Early-stage valuations: Many separating couples commission a property valuation early in the separation process simply to understand what they are dealing with — a clear-eyed assessment of the property's market value removes speculation and allows rational decisions to be made about whether to sell, retain, or refinance.
Mediator and lawyer-instructed: We regularly work alongside family law mediators and solicitors on separation matters, providing valuations that support negotiated outcomes rather than contested litigation.
Complex property situations: We are experienced in assessing properties with complications that make valuation challenging — dual-income properties, homes with significant renovations of disputed value, and properties with unusual site characteristics. Our valuers explain their methodology clearly, so both parties understand how the assessment was reached.

What Our Clients Say
"Commissioned early in our separation to understand what we were actually dealing with. Having a certified, independent figure took the argument out of the property question. Very helpful."
"The valuer understood the de facto legal context and prepared a report that our mediator could use directly. Helped us reach a fair agreement without going to the tribunal."
