C2C provides deceased estate property valuations across Gauteng, including valuations for the SARS REV246 form. We help executors and estate administrators establish an immovable property’s fair market value at the relevant date, usually the date of death specified in the instruction.
A deceased estate valuation is different from a current selling-price estimate. The report and form must address the correct property, ownership interest and valuation date. C2C has operated since 2002 and is led by Brian Morgan, SACPVP-registered Professional Valuer (3702).
Request a deceased estate valuation with the property address, date of death and the executor or administrator’s requirements.
What is the REV246 form?
REV246 is SARS’s valuation of immovable property form. It records information needed for an estate property valuation. Use the official SARS version and confirm the estate’s requirements with the executor or appointed tax adviser.

Who completes REV246?
The form separates the executor’s request from the valuer’s assessment. Part A is the executor’s request for the fair market value of the immovable property at the date of death. Part B is completed by the valuer. A separate form is required for each property.
Send us the executor’s instructions and available property information so we can confirm the valuation work and the form assistance included in the quote. The executor remains responsible for coordinating the estate administration and submission requirements.
Why the date of death matters
Property markets change. A retrospective valuation considers evidence relevant to the required historical date, rather than simply using today’s sale estimates. An inspection and available records help identify the property’s characteristics, condition and any changes since that date.
If additions, damage or renovations occurred after the date of death, tell us and provide dated records where possible. Material gaps in information may need to be addressed through clearly stated assumptions in the report.
Documents to prepare for a deceased estate valuation
- The property address and identifying details, such as the erf or sectional title description.
- The date of death and the executor or administrator’s contact details and instructions.
- A municipal account, title information and building plans where available.
- Details of the deceased’s ownership interest and any information requested for Part A of REV246.
- Access arrangements and records of material changes to the property.
- For rented property, available leases and income and expenditure information.
Fees and turnaround
The fee depends on the type, location and complexity of the property and the historical research required. We confirm the scope and expected delivery date before starting. A residential report is typically completed within 48 hours after the site visit when the required information is available; complex or retrospective matters may take longer.
Common questions
Can the municipal value be used instead?
A municipal assessment may relate to a different valuation date and purpose. Confirm what the executor, SARS or other recipient requires before relying on it as an estate valuation.
Can C2C value commercial property in an estate?
Yes. Tell us the property type and estate requirements. Our commercial and industrial property valuation pages explain the information relevant to income-producing premises.
