Rent Valuation in Sydney
A rent valuation in Sydney is more important than ever. The market is constantly changing, and you would want to make sure the rent for your property is fair and true to its current market value. A rent valuation may also be needed when there have been recent changes to the property that has altered its value. For related valuation services, see Property Valuation Sydney and Property Valuation NSW.
A regularly conducted rental valuation could benefit either or both the tenant and landlord. If a tenant feels that a change the landlord has done to the property has devalued it, then a fair and precise rental valuation report will support that claim. If the matter escalates, you may also need a Property Valuation for Court Purposes.
A key advantage of having a current rent valuation is information. A report has an extensive amount of detail which could be useful for more than just setting the rent of your property. To calculate the market value of your property, a valuer will examine and include the following in their rent valuation report:
- The size of the property, its exact dimensions, and the land usage
- Relevant location details such as suburb/city, distance to the CBD and local amenities (eg. schools, parks, and transportation)
- Age of the property, the general condition it is in and whether there are any structural issues that must be addressed
- Improvements, renovations, or additions that have been made to the property since its last rental valuation
If you also need an independent market value assessment for buying or selling, see our Pre-Sale/Pre-Purchase Valuation service.
This is an example of the details that are included in the process of rental determination. With all rental property reviews, a valuer will heavily research the current local property market. They find comparable properties that are similar to yours in every way. They review comparable rental evidence (current asking rents and recent leases where available), local vacancy and demand, incentives, and the property’s attributes to determine current market rent.

Rent Valuation FAQs
What is a rent valuation?
A rent valuation is an independent assessment of the current market rent a property is likely to achieve, based on comparable evidence and the property’s attributes.
When do I need a rental valuation report?
You may need a rental valuation when renewing a lease, reviewing rent, resolving a tenant/landlord dispute, or after renovations or changes that could affect rental value.
How is market rent determined?
Market rent is determined by analysing comparable rental evidence, local demand, location, property condition, size, features, and any improvements that influence tenant appeal.
Is a rent valuation the same as a rental appraisal?
A rent valuation is prepared by a qualified valuer using evidence and methodology, while a rental appraisal is typically an agent’s estimate for marketing purposes.
Can a rent valuation help with disputes?
Yes. An independent rent valuation report can provide objective evidence to support negotiations or formal processes when parties disagree about fair market rent.
