The Auctioneers and Valuers Association of Australia (AVAA) annual report highlights a year shaped and driven by the contributions of our members. Every initiative, program, and advocacy effort was informed by the insights and experiences of those working across auctioneering and valuation. AVAA’s member-centric approach ensured that the Association remained focused on what matters most, this being practical support, professional recognition, and long-term growth for the sector.

Central to this year’s report is the endorsement of the 2025–2030 AVAA Strategic Plan, a blueprint built on four pillars of education, advocacy, ethics and professional standards, and member value and engagement. These priorities will guide our work over the coming years, ensuring that AVAA continues to represent its members with authority and integrity. The report also highlights important milestones, including the launch of the Online Auction Compliance Program, new professional courses designed to strengthen skills and credibility, and enhanced recognition through the introduction of the AVAA Fellow credential.

The 2025 AVAA Annual Report is both a reflection of what has been achieved and an invitation to be part of what comes next.
