Purchasing a property is a monumental investment.  To minimise your risk, an independent property valuation is a valuable tool. 

Our clients have saved thousands of dollars by being prepared with an independent sworn valuation report of the subject property. 

“Ordering a valuation saved us thousands when we bought our home unit in the city. This place had great views and the agent/developer would not budge below 603,000. We were prepared to pay that but decided to get a valuation just to make sure. The valuation report came in at $570,000. Armed with our valuation, we were able to negotiate a better price, saving us nearly $25,000. The valuer was approachable and his follow up service and advice was really appreciated. Money well spent. Thank you.”  Mark, Paddington.

“Jonathan’s guidance during the sale of our house and the purchase of our new home has been priceless. When selling our house we set our reserve based on the valuation report received from JDMA. Our house was passed in at auction, but in the following days we negotiated up to the reserve price originally set. We felt confident we were making the right decision because we had sought professional advice. We look forward to recommending your services to our friends.” Jim, Northgate.

Our service doesn’t stop with a report.  Our follow up advice is an important part of our service.  It’s what sets us apart.

DID YOU KNOW?
Many people get a valuation during the cooling off period, but are unaware that terminating the contract during this time could cost them money. When a contract is cancelled during the cooling off period, the seller has the right to deduct a termination penalty of 0.25% of the purchase price. This is $1,250 on a $500,000 property.
