What is the best (cheapest) way to get a valuation on a property which I intend to sell?
Do I have to just go by the agent’s word? Who do I ring for an independent valuation in Brisbane?[confused2]

The cheapest (but not necessarily the best) is a real estate agent particularly if they think you are going to list your property with them. If you want it in writing, some will charge a small fee. But ALWAYS get several opinions if you choose an agent. They can vary considerably. It’s value is what someone will pay for it and some agents will try and “buy” your listing by over inflating the value.
Check around and see what other sililar properies have sold for recently in the area and have a look in RE agents windows first.
If you really want a proper Val, there are plenty of reputable valuers in Brisbane but they will usually give a lower price than an agent will and “valuations” will vary from “sale prices: as a rule.
