If not a special circumstance (bank requested restricted assessment etc), it is a breach of API ( trade associations) guidelines. [angry2]

I would suggest you do a lot more personal research. You and you alone have to be comfortable with your investments.

Own 2 IP in Adelaide. My first step was to “jump in”, mum as gaurentor when I was 18. Capital appreciation of 150% + in 11 years.

Maybe try Egans?

Council Valuations are calculated from increase (or decreasing) the original rating base. The base will vary in accuracy from Council area to Council area. If doesn’t take many years for the rating base to lose it’s relativity too.

The general rule is that CVs are conservative,…[Read more]

With Bank valuations, the Bank paying the valuation fee is guaranteed. With private situations, payments are not always forthcoming.

Private situations like you are proposing, most always turn out to be messier and more time consuming for the Valuer. Any smart Valuer is…[Read more]

You can’t just label an institution as conservative or over the top, because they lend on what the Valuers put Market Value down as. Good luck finding a Valuer that will put more on it than what you paid.

Thanks for the reply. Your example doesn’t clear the fog. [eh]I know how the Lease Option works in theory.

I invite you (or anyone) to write back regarding the following questions.

In my experience, it is rare that that a valuation amount will come in higher than contract price (If the sale is arm’s length of course) – maybe 1 out of 10. Everyone thinks they have bought the bargain of the century!

Any Valuer worth their salt will hunt down the contract. This is a sale, which they can compare to other properties…[Read more]

Due diligence should always be done before contracts are signed.

You could pay a Valuer for peice-of-mind. But what happens if your property turns out to be a dog (a slim possibility I presume)?? What benefit will you gain from the valuation report now anyway?

The Margin scheme can become very complex, very quickly. In essence the margin scheme is desinged to give tax relief to developers.
