Valuation Request – Sydney and NSW

Quadrant Terms and Conditions of Trade

I understand the opinions expressed by Quadrant’s valuer, are of an independent nature, based on research, evidence and the inspecting valuer’s interpretations of this information, and I have requested their independent services for that reason.

The Client(s) acknowledges and accepts:
They are engaging Quadrant to provide an independent opinion of value, based on information provided by the client, reasonably accessible registered information and the inspector’s independent interpretation of such information, all of which may result or differ from another opinion or another’s interpretations of such readily available information.

1. Valuation purpose: Quadrant has standard reports specifically designed for the specific purpose, based on their use and additional required inclusions, to meet Quadrant's and the relevant parties disclosed requirements.

2. Client’s estimated market value:
(2a) A client’s estimated market value is designed to enable the appropriate scale of fees and invoice be established, along with establishing a range which will enable the Valuer to source the appropriate evidence to be reviewed pre, upon or post inspection. It further helps place the Valuer in a position where relevant supporting evidence is included, the chance to address any possible issues, problems, dissatisfaction or expectations the client may hold pre report completion, all of which is with regard to avoiding complications due to non-disclosure of opinions and such supporting evidence, often referred to as the hit and hope factor or outcome Phishing.

(2b). Preference not to disclose or complete uncertainty to a range is understandable, however Quadrant cannot be expected to address issues, opinions or evidence where information has been withheld or established post completion. Where a differing opinion is held and initial payment has been made, Quadrant reserves the right to address such issues on its merits at Quadrants discretion with further regard to additional time and cost factors which may apply.

3. Terms of Trade:
(3a). Quadrant has a standard fee structure based on general standard instructions, specifically cost and time factors, not outcomes. Quadrant's work ceases upon report completion. Quadrant will not engage in outcomes, differing opinions, justifications or internal procedures post completion. Our independent opinion is not a negotiation or open for debate.

(3b) As above, Quadrant again strongly recommends any pre-established opinions held upon this request, along with and all further supporting evidence, be included or e-mailed separately to us along with this request. It is not Quadrant responsibility to verify, clarify, critique, refute or comment on the validity, relevance or irrelevance of any other opinion or report provided as supporting evidence.
Quadrant reserves the right to decline any valuation request or reject additional work requests, updates post completion, clarifications, where we feel false or misleading information has been provided deliberately or otherwise, or where we feel undue pressure or intimidation are being applied, including where we feel a client is acting overly anxious with compulsion or overly financially outcome motivated.

2. Payment collection procedures: The client acknowledges and accepts Quadrant’s collection procedures are subject to EC Credit Controls Terms and Conditions of Trade outlined at the bottom of our website under: Terms of Trade.
