Homeshare Estimates
What Factors Do We Consider?
Comparable Sales
We analyse recent sales of similar properties in the same suburb or nearby streets. This includes consideration of:
Property type (house, apartment, townhouse)
Floor area and land size
Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
Condition and level of renovation
Sale dates (typically within the past 6–12 months)
We avoid sales that are outdated or not representative of the current market conditions.
Market Data & Automated Valuation Tools
We reference data from tools including CoreLogic, QV, OneRoof, and local Council Rateable Valuations (RVs). These AVMs (automated valuation models) help establish a general pricing band but are not used on their own. We cross-check this data against other indicators to assess its reliability for the specific property type and location.
Rental Income and Yield Assessment
As these properties are designed for investment, rental income is an important component of the valuation process. For each property, we review:
Current rental income (if tenanted)
Market rent assessments
Indicative gross and net yields based on comparable investments
While not the sole driver of valuation, this information provides useful context on expected cash flow for investors.
Market Conditions and Regional Trends
We consider broader market trends that may influence pricing, including:
Recent shifts in local property values
Interest rate changes
Supply and demand in the region
Infrastructure changes or planned developments
This helps ensure that our valuation reflects real-time market sentiment and not just historical sales data.
Legal and Title Considerations
We review each property's legal structure, including:
Freehold vs leasehold status
Lease terms and ground rent obligations (if applicable)
Body corporate rules and levy costs (for apartments)
LIM and title documentation for any legal issues
Where risks are identified, these are factored into the overall assessment and disclosed to investors.
Manual Review and Price Approval
Every property submitted to Homeshare is manually reviewed by our internal team. The proposed listing price is evaluated against the factors above. If we believe the price is not justified by the data, we may:
Request further documentation (e.g. valuation, rent appraisal)
Recommend a price revision
Decline the listing
Only once a price is confirmed to be supportable and in the interests of potential investors will it be approved for fractionalisation.
