Why Retrospective Valuations Are Requested
Clients request retrospective valuations for various reasons, particularly when past market conditions or earlier property details need to be referenced.
These reports can support administrative or financial tasks where a previous date is relevant. Common situations include:
- Insurance reviews requiring earlier value references
- Capital gains reporting involving historical figures
- Estate administration tasks where past ownership dates apply
- Family law matters that need an agreed value at a particular point in time
We consider the timing, available evidence and factors that influenced value at the relevant date. This helps ensure the report suits the purpose of the review.

Different Approaches to Retrospective Valuations
Retrospective valuations can be completed using a range of approaches depending on the type of information needed. Some clients require a general market value at a past date, while others need an assessment that aligns with insurance requirements, estate processes or internal audits.
We consider comparable sales from the relevant period, the condition of the property at the time and documented improvements. When available, historic mapping, sales listings and archived data help support the assessment. Each valuation is tailored to the purpose of the request so the information remains practical and suitable for further use.
To discuss suitable approaches for retrospective valuations, reach out to our team.
Special Considerations for Retrospective Valuations
Some retrospective valuations require more detailed examination, particularly when the property has changed significantly since the date in question. In these situations, we review renovation records, historical photographs, development applications and other documents that help clarify the property’s earlier state.
Forced sale scenarios, liquidation contexts or rental market assessments may also be relevant depending on the circumstances. Each of these situations requires different data sources and reporting formats, and our focus is on presenting the information clearly so it aligns with the purpose of the assessment.

When Retrospective Valuations Are Useful
Retrospective valuations can support a wide range of tasks, such as preparing documents for accountants, finalising estate matters or reviewing earlier purchase decisions. These assessments may also assist when establishing the value of a property that has been held long term or when historic figures are needed for compliance.
By outlining the market influences that applied at the chosen date, these valuations help create a factual reference point that contributes to accurate record keeping. Our goal is to make the information clear so it can be used confidently in administrative or financial discussions.

What Our Customers Say
FAQ
What is a retrospective property valuation for CGT?
A retrospective property valuation determines a property's market value at a specific past date. For CGT purposes, this valuation is often used to calculate tax liabilities when selling an asset acquired before the introduction of CGT or when substantial changes have been made.
Is a retrospective valuation necessary for CGT?
Retrospective valuations are critical for determining CGT liabilities, particularly for properties with pre- and post-CGT components. They provide a basis for calculating the taxable gain, considering improvements, ownership changes or market fluctuations since the acquisition date.
What information is required for a retrospective valuation?
Key details include the date of acquisition, records of property improvements or changes and any relevant documentation such as previous sales contracts or council approvals. This information supports accurate assessments of a property's value at the specified date.
Are retrospective valuations required for inherited properties?
Inherited properties often require retrospective valuations to determine their market value at the time of inheritance. This value serves as the acquisition cost for CGT calculations if the property is later sold.
