The Municipal Group of Valuers (MGV) is the leading industry organisation representing valuers who predominately provide services to local governments. MGV plays a critical role in the delivery and progression of rating valuations across Victoria with some of our firms undertaking interstate valuations. 

Key focus areas of the MGV include: 

• Providing education and training opportunities for rating valuers. 

• Collaborating with state government agencies on rating and valuation matters. 

• Offering advice to local and state governments on legislative amendments and policy issues. 

• Advocating on behalf of rating valuers and rating authorities. 

• Collecting and disseminating market information for specialist and high-value property types. 

• Developing technical guidance papers to support professional practice. 

MGV boasts a membership exceeding 250 professionals. While historically the membership primarily consisted of valuers employed by Councils, the shift toward outsourcing rating valuation services has led to a growing number of members from private sector valuation firms. 

The Group is governed by an elected executive committee, with all positions held on an honorary basis.
