What Is a Quantity Surveyor (QS) Report?
A Quantity Surveyor Report analyses the value of improvements and construction works on a property. It provides certified figures that can be used for:
• Maximising tax deductions on investment properties
• Tracking construction budgets
• Assessing rebuild or replacement costs for insurance
• Supporting QS bank reports for lending
• Refinancing and construction finance applications
Every QS Report arranged through Propti is completed by a qualified and properly QS registered professional, following ATO and Australian Institute of Quantity Surveyors (AIQS) standards.
QS Pricing, QS Cost & QS Fees Explained
One of the most common questions we receive is:
How much does a QS Report cost?
QS pricing depends on:
• Property type (residential, commercial or mixed use)
• Construction complexity
• Size and improvement value
• Location within Australia
• Purpose of the report (depreciation, bank reporting, insurance, budgeting)
Most QS fees are structured as a fixed professional service fee rather than a percentage of property value.
If you are comparing QS pricing or QS cost estimates, we provide transparent quotes with no hidden charges.
