Ross Forrester
Director at Westcourt Pty Ltd (Accountants)
“Blair has done business valuations for tax purposes in the past and he has been fast and well priced.
One of the valuations done by Blair was subject to audit scrutiny by the Tax Office. The valuation impacted a tax liability of up-to $6m (as opposed to nil that we were arguing). Blair's valuation and methodology was the subject of significant scrutiny by the Tax Office and we were delighted when it was accepted.
We will continue to refer work to Blair and we have no hesitation in recommending his services.”

When you need an accurate and unbiased opinion of your business value, it is important to select a company that has local “on the ground” knowledge and a proven history of accuracy and quality. Perth Business Valuations is that company.
WE ARE YOUR LOCAL EXPERTS.
Unlike many of our peers, we do not operate from the east coast, where valuation methodologies differ from WA in small but critical aspects. We focus exclusively on WA which gives us intimate knowledge of the unique local market that cannot be matched by outside valuation companies.
WE’VE GOT OUR FINGER ON THE PULSE OF WA BUSINESS.
If it’s happening in local industry, we know about it. We’re working with multiple businesses in both Perth and regional WA, with clients in the services industry, hospitality, tourism, manufacturing, wholesaling/distribution and retail. Our commitment to Continuing Professional Development (CPD) ensures that we utilise accurate and up-to-date market evidence of business transactions within WA.
WE ARE EXPERTS IN A HIGHLY SPECIALISED FIELD.
Our staff are both Licensed Property and Business Valuers and Licensed Land and Business Agents. By engaging with us you are significantly increasing the reliability and accuracy of the valuation process for your business.
WE UNDERSTAND YOUR LEGAL NEEDS.
Business valuations are often required for legal purposes, so it is imperative that a correct assessment of value is provided to achieve a fair and equitable legal outcome. We have specifically developed our valuation reports to best assist legal counsel in determining the value of the business assets that they are assessing.
WE ARE INDEPENDENT RESEARCHERS DELIVERING SOLID REPORTS.
While other valuers might use ‘rules of thumb’, hearsay evidence, or broad averages to determine the value of a business, we are able to provide unbiased, market evidence-based valuations that can withstand critical examination. Our independent research and wide base of knowledge across various industries ensures that you will benefit from our expertise through timely and reliable reports that will hold up in circumstances of an adversarial nature.
WE HAVE A PROVEN TRACK RECORD.
Our team of local valuation experts have over two decades of combined business and property valuation experience.
We have written a FREE BUSINESS VALUATION GUIDE to share about our process for valuing your business. This guide is completely free (no sign up required) and will answer many of your questions regarding Business Valuations.
Partnership buyouts and transfers - In acquiring or divesting an ownership stake in a company that has commercial goodwill, it is important that the business valuation reflects the fair market value of that share. Our valuations are based on factual historical market evidence, enabling us to accurately determine the value of businesses as if they were to be transacted in an open market.
Expert witness valuations for matrimonial / legal purposes – It's an unfortunate reality that there will be times when an independent valuation of business assets is required in a matrimonial or legal settlement. We have considerable experience in representing clients on both a single expert witness basis and an assisting expert witness basis for legal practitioners in Western Australia. We have specifically developed our valuation reports to best assist legal counsel in determining the value of the business assets that they are seeking to value. Our valuation reports can withstand the rigours of cross-examination, and are prepared in accordance with generally accepted legal practice standards.
Australian Tax Office-approved business valuations for stamp duty and taxation assessment purposes – Australian tax law often requires business valuations for the transfer of assets, capital gains tax purposes and other taxation requirements. Our valuations satisfy these requirements and are accepted by the Australian Taxation Office and the Western Australia Department of Commerce.
