Valuation contractors
Each year the Valuer General contracts out the provision of land valuation services in a number of local government areas of New South Wales.
The contracts are for a period of three or four years, depending on the geographic location of the contract area. Each contract usually contains one or more local government areas, depending on the number of valuations involved. Table of current contract information (PDF 48 kb).
The valuation firms undertaking the valuations are thoroughly scrutinised through an independent open tender and rigorous evaluation process.
Independent, professionally qualified valuers undertake the valuations. All valuations are prepared under a standard set of procedures to ensure consistency. Additionally, the valuations are subject to an audit process before they are approved by Lands and released.
Separating responsibility for the initial valuing work and the final approval by Lands ensures the quality of the valuations.
