Capital Gains Tax (CGT) Property Valuations | ATO-Compliant

Reports Australia

When selling, transferring or restructuring an investment property, you may require a Capital Gains Tax (CGT) property valuation to determine the correct market value for tax reporting.

Propti provides certified property valuations for CGT purposes across Australia, prepared by qualified and independent valuers. Our reports are accurate, defensible and compliant with Australian Taxation Office (ATO) requirements.

If you require other valuation types, explore our Mortgage Purpose Valuations or Transfer Valuations.

What Is a Property Valuation for CGT Purposes?

A property valuation for CGT purposes determines the market value of a property as at a specific historical date. This is often required when:

• A property changes from principal residence to investment
• An asset is transferred into or out of an SMSF or trust
• Ownership changes between related parties
• A property is inherited
• Establishing a cost base for capital gains tax reporting

This type of valuation is sometimes referred to as:

• CGT property valuation
• Capital gains tax property valuation
• Valuation for CGT purposes
• Retrospective CGT valuation

All reports are completed by qualified property valuers in accordance with professional valuation standards.

Why Property Valuations for CGT Purposes Matter

Incorrect valuations can result in:

• Overpaying capital gains tax
• ATO disputes or audit risk
• Inaccurate cost base calculations
• Legal or accounting complications

A properly prepared capital gains tax property valuation ensures:

• ATO compliance
• Evidence-based market analysis
• Audit-ready documentation
• Accountant and legal acceptance

When Do You Need a CGT Property Valuation?

You may require a CGT property valuation when:

• Selling an investment property
• Converting your home into a rental
• Receiving property via inheritance
• Transferring property between family members
• Establishing a historical market value for tax reporting

In many cases, the required date is not today — it may be a historical valuation date. In these circumstances, a retrospective property valuation for CGT purposes may be required.
