When a Rural or Agribusiness Valuation Is Needed

 

Buying or Selling a Farming Enterprise

Independent valuations help vendors and buyers determine fair market value based on production potential and land attributes.

​

Refinancing and Farm Expansion

Banks and non-bank lenders require updated valuations to assess borrowing capacity and loan security.

​

Succession and Estate Planning

Rural families often require valuations during generational transfer or business restructuring.

​

SMSF Holdings

Rural land held in SMSF structures must be independently valued at regular intervals.

​

Insurance and Replacement Cost

Specialised rural infrastructure such as dairy sheds, irrigation systems, fencing and machinery storage requires accurate replacement values.

Taxation and CGT Assessments

Valuations support capital gains calculations, land tax assessments and other compliance requirements.
