The 1 July 2027 CGT changes are coming
From 1 July 2027, the 50% CGT discount is being replaced by cost-base indexation and a 30% minimum tax for affected assets — and pre-1985 properties lose their CGT-free status for gains that accrue afterwards.
- A market valuation as at 1 July 2027 is how you (and your accountant) split the gain into pre- and post-transition portions.
- The API recommends getting this done 3–4 months after the date, and at most within two years.
- Our CGT & Tax Valuation is built specifically for ATO acceptance.
Four valuation types. One transparent price each.
Every job is completed — and every report signed off — by a fully qualified, independently registered valuer. No quotes to request and no call centre: choose the level of inspection that matches your purpose, then book and pay online in a couple of minutes.

Frequently asked questions
Which valuation type does the ATO accept for capital gains tax purposes?
For capital gains tax purposes the ATO expects a valuation prepared by a suitably qualified, independent valuer that clearly sets out the methodology and evidence used — not an automated online estimate. Our CGT & Tax Valuation is built specifically for this: it's a full internal and external inspection with an ATO-ready report format. Desktop and kerbside valuations are better suited to lending and compliance checks rather than CGT evidence.
What is changing with capital gains tax on 1 July 2027?
From 1 July 2027, Australia's CGT rules change materially for affected assets: the current 50% CGT discount is being replaced by cost-base indexation plus a 30% minimum tax on real gains, and pre-1985 assets lose their CGT-free status for gains that accrue after the transition date. A market valuation as at 1 July 2027 is the practical way to split a property's eventual capital gain into a pre-transition portion (taxed under the old rules) and a post-transition portion (taxed under the new rules).
When should I get my 1 July 2027 valuation done?
The Australian Property Institute recommends obtaining your transition valuation roughly three to four months after 1 July 2027, and at the very latest within two years of that date, so the valuation date and evidence remain defensible. It isn't a fixed legal deadline, but leaving it too long weakens the evidentiary value of the report.
What's the difference between desktop, kerbside and full inspection valuations?
A desktop valuation is prepared entirely from data and comparable sales, with no site visit — fastest and most affordable. A kerbside valuation adds an exterior, street-level inspection by a local valuer. A full inspection includes both the interior and exterior of the property and produces the most detailed, defensible report. Higher-stakes purposes — mortgage security, CGT, estate and family law matters — generally call for a full inspection.
Are your valuers independent and appropriately registered?
Yes. Every valuation is prepared by an independent, appropriately registered valuer operating under their own professional indemnity insurance, in line with Australian Property Institute standards and the state-based registration requirements that apply in their jurisdiction.
Which cities do you cover?
We currently operate across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra and Hobart, with valuers based locally in each city rather than travelling in from elsewhere.
Is my report actually prepared by a qualified valuer?
Yes. Every report on ValueEdge is prepared by — and, where applicable, reviewed and signed off by — a fully qualified, independently registered valuer aligned with Australian Property Institute Certified Practising Valuer (CPV) standards. You're never getting an automated online estimate dressed up as a valuation.
Is the 20% launch offer available on every service?
Yes — the launch offer applies to all four valuation types (desktop, kerbside, full inspection, and CGT & tax) and is applied automatically at checkout, no code required. Given the demand expected ahead of the 1 July 2027 CGT changes, we'd recommend booking sooner rather than later to beat the rush.
