Trusted by leading organisations across Australia.
From small family-run stations to large publicly listed agribusinesses, we help rural landowners challenge inflated government land valuations that drive up council rates, state land rent, land tax, and leasehold conversion costs.
SVA Property Advisory entered the rural sector in 2020 to tackle soaring government land value hikes. As the leading firm for rural objections and appeals, we consistently achieve reductions where others can’t. Our team combines detailed sales analysis with real-world insights—factoring in improvements, costs, and your local knowledge—to ensure your property’s true unimproved value is recognised. We have the expertise to take matters to court if needed and have already seen our efforts begin to shift government behaviour toward fairer valuations for rural landowners—on par with metro standards
Free of intangible elements
Rural owners often worry that high assessments are driven by going concern value, renewables, carbon credits and biodiversity offsets—items that should be excluded from unimproved land valuations. Our specialist expertise identifies and remove these factors.
In-depth valuation review
We go beyond basic checks, separating real value from assumptions. This ensures your land is accurately and fairly assessed, helping you avoid overpayments and secure a fair unimproved value.
Maximising review opportunities
With revaluations typically happening every 3–5 years, we help you make the most of these crucial windows, protecting you from costly errors and securing the best possible outcome for your property.
Knowledge starts with you
We collaborate closely with landowners throughout the process, recognising that no one understands the unique characteristics and constraints of your property better than you do.
