If you’ve received a land tax assessment that seems excessive or inaccurate, you may have grounds to object and professional advice can make all the difference. At Sydney Property Valuers, we assist landowners with expert valuation advice, objection preparation, and evidence to support fair and accurate land tax outcomes.
Land tax assessments are typically based on the unimproved value of land as determined by the Valuer General. However, these valuations can be contested if they don’t reflect true market conditions, have errors in zoning or land use classification, or fail to consider site-specific limitations. We work closely with property owners, solicitors, and accountants to review assessments, prepare objections, and, where required, provide formal valuation reports suitable for submission to Revenue NSW or other state authorities.
Property owners dealing with structures or uses extending across boundaries may also require Encroachment compensation valuation advice.
