National coverage, and the state rules that actually differ.
RPV covers all eight Australian capital cities and the major regional centres. Coverage in each state is provided by a valuer registered or certified to practise in that jurisdiction, because the rules are not national: Queensland and Western Australia restrict valuation work to statutorily registered valuers, each state has its own valuing authority and revenue office, and objection windows run from a different trigger event in every jurisdiction. The valuer covering your property is named before you instruct.
The same house, eight different sets of rules.

| JURISDICTION | VALUER REGISTRATION | REVENUE AUTHORITY | STATUTORY OBJECTION WINDOW |
|---|---|---|---|
| Queensland | Statutory. Valuers Registration Board of Queensland | Queensland Revenue Office | 60 DAYS from issue of the valuation notice under the Land Valuation Act 2010. Late lodgement only within one year and in limited circumstances. |
| New South Wales | Not statutory. CPV certification is the accepted standard | Revenue NSW; Valuer General NSW | 60 DAYS from issue of the Notice of Valuation. All evidence must be filed with the objection — there is no second chance to add to it. |
| Victoria | Not statutory. CPV certification is the accepted standard | State Revenue Office Victoria | 60 DAYS for land tax objections, running from the date on the assessment notice. Extensions require special circumstances. |
| Western Australia | Statutory. Licensed through DMIRS | RevenueWA; Landgate | 60 DAYS from a rates, water, land tax or pastoral rent notice. The notice must still be paid by its due date while the objection runs. |
| South Australia | Not statutory. CPV certification is the accepted standard | RevenueSA; Valuer-General SA | 60 DAYS. Values are determined as at 1 January, and both site value and capital value are assessed — be clear which you are objecting to. |
| Australian Capital Territory | Not statutory. CPV certification is the accepted standard | ACT Revenue Office | 60 DAYS, strictly. Late objections cannot be accepted — you wait for the next annual notice. |
| Tasmania | Not statutory. CPV certification is the accepted standard | State Revenue Office Tasmania; Office of the Valuer-General | SEE NOTICE — work from the objection period printed on your own valuation or rates notice and confirm it with the issuing authority. |
| Northern Territory | Not statutory. CPV certification is the accepted standard | Territory Revenue Office | SEE NOTICE — confirm the objection period against your own notice and with the Territory Revenue Office before relying on it. |
Objection windows and evidence requirements are set out with their primary sources in the knowledge hub. Always check the closing date printed on your own notice — it governs, not a general rule.
Eight capitals, each with its own file.
Brisbane and Perth are covered directly by our own registered valuer. Everywhere else, by a valuer registered or certified in that state — named to you before you instruct, never after.
Brisbane
Our registered office. Signed by Jarrad Khoury, Registered Valuer (Queensland, not limited). Queensland Revenue Office evidence rules, 30-day duty lodgement clock, Land Court appeal pathway.
Perth
Signed by Jarrad Khoury, Licensed Valuer (Western Australia, not limited). RevenueWA and Landgate requirements; objection runs from the rates, water, land tax or pastoral rent notice.

Darwin
Covered by a CPV practising in the Territory market. Territory Revenue Office requirements. Confirm the objection period against your own notice before relying on it.
Regional and remote, answered honestly.
We cover the major regional centres in every state. Beyond those, the answer depends on the property and the distance, and you will get it before you instruct rather than after.
Two things genuinely change outside the metropolitan markets: comparable sales are thinner, so the analysis takes longer and the report has to explain more; and travel has to be agreed in advance. Both are reflected in the fixed fee, and neither appears as a variation afterwards.
If we can attend, we will say so
With a date and a fee. Remote properties are quoted with travel agreed up front.
If we can't, we will tell you that too
Rather than sending a valuer who does not know the market. A report from someone unfamiliar with a thin regional market is a liability, not a saving.
The state rules still apply
A regional property is governed by its state's revenue authority and objection window, not by its distance from the capital. The table above is what matters.
Twelve centres we attend regularly.
Each sits under its state's rules, not its distance from a capital. The note against each is the thing that most often changes the work.
Gold Coast
Queensland Revenue Office; 60-day objection window from the valuation notice.
Sunshine Coast
Queensland Revenue Office; 60-day objection window from the valuation notice.
Townsville
Queensland Revenue Office; thinner comparable evidence than the south-east.
Cairns
Queensland Revenue Office; tropical-build stock affects rebuild cost assessments.
Toowoomba
Queensland Revenue Office; rural-residential fringe requires care on the land component.
Newcastle
Revenue NSW; all objection evidence must be filed at once.
Central Coast
Revenue NSW; all objection evidence must be filed at once.
Wollongong
Revenue NSW; escarpment and coastal constraints affect site value.
Geelong
State Revenue Office Victoria; land tax objections run 60 days from the assessment notice.
Ballarat
State Revenue Office Victoria; heritage stock is common and affects comparability.
Bendigo
State Revenue Office Victoria; heritage stock is common and affects comparability.
Launceston
State Revenue Office Tasmania; the objection period is printed on your own notice.
Outside these centres, tell us the address and we will confirm whether we can attend, when, and what travel does to the fixed fee — before you instruct.
