The firm
behind HAUS.
A boutique valuation practice built on deep expertise across residential and commercial property, lending, and financial markets — delivering rigorous, professional work with the speed and care of a specialist firm.
HAUS was founded on a simple observation: the valuation market had a gap. Clients — accountants, financial planners, solicitors, and lenders — needed valuations that were fast, professional, and built around their workflows. Most firms weren't delivering all three.
HAUS was established to change that. By combining Certified Practising Valuer expertise with AI-assisted research and reporting tools, we produce valuations that meet the highest industry and legislative standards — without the delays and overhead of traditional practice.
