FURTHER NOTES - PROPRO

Where any notes are recorded on tape or by other electronic means, either the tape should be retained with the file or a hard copy of the recording or electronic record should be produced and retained with the file.

While valuers may use a variety of methods to record their field notes, as a guide, information recorded and retained on file should be adequate:

• to demonstrate that a proper inspection has been carried out
• to allow the valuer to discuss the property and the report with the client or its service providers at some point in the future (which may be some years hence).
