Valuers Act [Chapter 27:18]

The statutory framework for registering valuers and regulating professional valuation practice in Zimbabwe.

In brief

This Act establishes the Valuers Council and the register of valuers. It explains who may practise, how registration and discipline work, and why a property valuation should be prepared by an appropriately registered professional.

What to look for

  • The Valuers Council regulates registration and professional practice.
  • The Act restricts specified valuation work by unregistered people.
  • Registration does not replace a clear valuation instruction, inspection and basis of value.
