The day a home first earned rent, its value that day became your cost base. Near half of Brunswick is tenanted and that tenanted stock sits on both sides of the title question, so this date turns up here on holdings of every description
Cannot pin down the day it started earning? A lease, a bond lodgement or the first rent statement usually settles it.
The day the first tenant moved in is the day the figure was set. Nothing about the property changed and nobody recorded the occasion, which is why it gets reconstructed years afterwards.
Letting a self-contained part of a Brunswick property while living in the rest fixes a date just as firmly as letting the whole of it. The valuation covers the whole holding at that date and your accountant apportions from it.
Owners who let a Brunswick property through an agent for years often find the records from the start of it went with the agency rather than with them. A valuation to the date sets the starting figure from settled sales instead, which is evidence nobody has to go hunting for.

The valuer works to the Brunswick sales that had settled by that date, and to the property as it stood then rather than as it stands now.

It provides an evidenced market value at the date a tax rule sets or resets the property's value for cost base purposes. Your accountant then applies that value with the other allowable cost base elements relevant to your circumstances.
The 2026-27 CGT reforms use 1 July 2027 as the transition point for gains accruing under the new indexation arrangements. If the transitional rules apply to your asset, a contemporaneous market valuation can evidence the value used for that date. Confirm eligibility with your tax adviser.
Yes. A retrospective report can reconstruct market value at a past date using period sales and available property evidence. Ordering earlier can make records easier to obtain, but a later report is still possible where suitable evidence exists.
Yes. Where the home first used to produce income rule applies, the required market value may be the value on the first income-producing date. Ask your accountant to confirm that the rule applies and provide that exact date in the order.
Yes, the report can establish market value for an instructed date where a tax rule substitutes market value for the amount paid. The applicable date and treatment vary, so obtain advice before choosing the valuation instruction.
The report values the property at the instructed date. It does not replace your records of stamp duty, legal fees, capital improvements, selling costs or other cost base elements. Give those records to your accountant for the full calculation.
A valuation can evidence market value at the relevant transition date where the new rules bring later gains into the CGT calculation. The treatment of a specific pre-1985 asset can be complex, so confirm the instruction and eligibility with your tax adviser.
A valuation can support a market-based allocation between lots or interests when that is the agreed scope. Tell us about the subdivision, relevant dates and titles so the valuer can confirm whether a standard report or a tailored instruction is required.
The report identifies the asset and valuation date, explains the basis and methodology, analyses relevant comparable sales and records the valuer's signed conclusion. It supports the market value input but does not guarantee a particular ATO outcome.
Provide the exact valuation date and reason, ownership details and any plans, leases, photos or renovation records relevant to the property's condition at that time. Your accountant's written instruction is especially helpful for unusual cost base events.
Signed, dated and evidenced, and it holds good for as long as you own the place.
