DeskVal gives private sellers and buyers an independent, evidence-based opinion on what a property is really worth, with no listing to win and no commission at stake. Real comparable sales, a clear price range, in as little as 24 hours.

DeskVal exists to give you a fast, honest read on value, with the evidence laid out so anyone can follow the reasoning.

Built for speed

A desktop process means no scheduling and no waiting on a site visit. The Price Check turns around in under 24 hours, the Full Report in 48.

Transparent by design

Every report shows its working. You see the comparables, the adjustments and the reasoning behind the range, not just a single figure.

Real comparable evidence

The range is anchored to recent, genuinely comparable sales and current market data, not a black-box estimate or an automated guess.

Evidence-based methodology

A consistent, documented method underpins every report, so the number holds up when you have to explain or defend it.

Common questions

The honest answers.

Is this a certified valuation?

No, and that distinction matters. A DeskVal report is an indicative market price opinion, not a certified valuation. It is not prepared by a registered or certified practising valuer and no physical inspection is undertaken.

A certified valuation is a formal document prepared by a qualified valuer, usually after inspecting the property, and it carries professional liability. It's what a bank requires for lending and what a court or statutory process will accept. A DeskVal report is a faster, lower-cost desktop opinion that tells you where the evidence points, so you can make an informed decision or back up your thinking in a conversation. Think of it as a sharp, evidence-based read on value, not a substitute for a certified valuation where one is genuinely required.

Why not just use a free online estimate?

Free online estimates are generated by an algorithm. No one looks at your property, the comparable sales are matched automatically, and the result is usually a wide range with no explanation of how it was reached. They're a useful starting point, but they routinely miss the mark on renovated, unusual or recently changed homes, exactly the properties where the number matters most.

A DeskVal report is prepared by a person. We hand-pick genuinely comparable recent sales, adjust them for the real differences (land size, condition, bedrooms, parking), cross-check against rental evidence, and show you the full working behind the range. You get a tighter, reasoned figure you can actually stand behind when you list, offer or negotiate, not just a number from a black box.

How fast will I get my report?

Price Check reports are delivered in under 24 hours. The Full Desktop Report takes 48 hours and the Negotiation Support report takes 72 hours, because each adds another layer of evidence and reasoning. Turnaround runs from when your payment and property details are confirmed.

What data do you use?

We work from recent comparable sales and publicly available market and property data for the suburb and surrounds. We weight the most genuinely comparable sales, note the relevant differences and build an indicative range from that evidence. Every comparable used is listed in the report so you can see exactly what the range is built on.

What can and can't a DeskVal report be used for?

Good for: getting a quick, evidence-based sense of value before listing, buying or negotiating; sense-checking a figure you've been given; informing a private family or partnership discussion; and giving you an evidence-based number to anchor a conversation.

Not for: mortgage or lending purposes, accounting or SMSF compliance, taxation, family law, litigation or any court or statutory purpose. Where a certified valuation is required, obtain one from a registered or certified practising valuer. The full detail is in the disclaimer below.

Do you visit the property?

No. DeskVal is a desktop process by design, which is what makes it fast and affordable. Because there's no inspection, the opinion relies on the data and comparables available, and condition or features not reflected in that data won't be captured. If those details matter to your decision, mention them in the purpose field and we'll factor in what we reasonably can.
