From $80 + GST. No surprises.

One rate. Everyone.

$80 + GST per certificate

Whether you need one certificate or fifty, whether it's a straightforward or involving more complex ECPI calculations — the ECPI certificate rate is the same. Separate valuation and reserve reports are scoped separately.

  • Proportionate-method ECPI certificates
