The replacement cost of your home and contents may vary depending on the home's
design, features, fixtures and fittings. By answering a few quick questions, this
guide is designed to help you calculate the replacement costs of your Home Building.
If you are unsure, we recommend that you obtain a professional valuation by contacting
a builder or expert.
Important information about how this guide works
The program for calculating the estimated replacement costs of your home building
is provided by Reed Business Information Pty Ltd (ABN 80 132 719 861) trading as
Cordell Information "Cordell". The building calculator uses typical building replacement
costs identified by Cordell from its industry research. Cordell authorises use of the
building calculator on the basis that whilst every care is taken to ensure the accuracy
of the information as a guide for costing, no responsibility is accepted by Cordell
for its accuracy. Cordell's research indicates that in 90% of cases the building estimate
delivers an accuracy of +/- 7.50%. AMP takes no responsibility for the accuracy of
any information in, or results derived from, Cordell's building calculator.
This guide provides estimates only, based on data about industry averages. The value
of your home building will vary depending on your circumstances. This guide does
not provide a definitive replacement cost of any home building. For a professional
replacement cost estimate you will need to contact a Quantity Surveyor, Valuer or
other suitably qualified professional. All building replacement costs include an
allowance for GST.
