You know who is signing before you instruct.
Residential valuations at RPV are led and signed by Jarrad Khoury, Director and Head of Valuations, a Certified Practising Valuer certified by the Australian Property Institute, a Registered Valuer in Queensland and a Licensed Valuer in Western Australia — both without limitation. Every registration below is listed with the body that issued it so you can verify it independently before you engage us.
Jarrad Khoury
Jarrad has over ten years in the industry and is a Certified Practising Valuer with the Australian Property Institute. He is a Registered Valuer in Queensland and a Licensed Valuer in Western Australia, in both cases without limitation — meaning there is no cap on the value or class of property he is authorised to value.
Alongside residential valuation he leads the Business Valuation Services division at Asset Valuations Group, specialising in valuations prepared for litigation, tax and transaction purposes. That work matters here for one reason: reports written to be tested — by a court, an auditor or the ATO — are written differently from reports written to be filed. It is the same discipline applied to a house.
Most of the residential work he signs is retrospective or contested: dates of death, capital gains cost bases, separations, SMSF audits and statutory objections. All of it turns on the same question — can the figure be defended from the evidence that existed at the valuation date.
Outside Queensland and Western Australia, coverage is provided by valuers registered or certified to practise in that jurisdiction. We name the covering valuer for your property before you instruct, not after.
Five registrations, five issuing bodies, all checkable.
We publish the issuing body for each one because a credential you cannot verify is not a credential. If a firm will not tell you who signs, that is the answer to your question.

| CREDENTIAL | ISSUING BODY | WHAT IT PERMITS |
|---|---|---|
| Certified Practising Valuer (CPV) | Australian Property Institute | The certification courts, the ATO and state revenue offices expect on a valuation, in every state. Requires continuing professional development to maintain. |
| Registered Valuer, Queensland — not limited | Valuers Registration Board of Queensland | Statutory registration. In Queensland valuation work is restricted to registered valuers. "Not limited" means no cap on the value or class of property. |
| Licensed Valuer, Western Australia — not limited | Department of Energy, Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (WA) | Statutory licensing for Western Australia, again without limitation on value or property class. |
| CPV and Certified Business Valuer (CBV) | Australian Valuers Institute | Property and business valuation certification, relevant where a matter involves both a home and an interest in a business — common in separation and estate work. |
| Registered Business Valuer | Australian Institute of Business Brokers | Business valuation registration, held through the Business Valuation Services division at Asset Valuations Group. |
Three things to ask any valuer, including us.
Who will sign the report?
Ask for a name before you instruct, not a company. A report is only as good as the person prepared to put their registration on it, and a firm that will not name them in advance is telling you something.
Are they a CPV, and is it current?
Certified Practising Valuer status is maintained through continuing professional development and can be confirmed with the Australian Property Institute. In Queensland and Western Australia you can also check the statutory register directly.
Will they inspect it themselves?
The valuer who signs should be the valuer who attended. Where a report is signed by someone who never saw the property, that is a fact the report should disclose — and a fact worth knowing before a court or an auditor finds it.
