As of 1 September 2008 Market Line will commence trading as “Market Line - Opteon”.

Although Market Line remains an independently owned and operated corporate entity, the move to co-brand as Market Line - Opteon more clearly demonstrates the national capability of our Opteon membership.

We believe this will allow Market Line and our fellow Opteon members to be even more competitive when bidding for national contracts as they arise.

Opteon membership also provides access to national industry intelligence and state of the art technology platforms. Maintaining the Market Line component of our name guarantees our local and national clients that we will continue to give the same high quality, accurate and independent advice that they have come to expect from our friendly and professional team.

The valuation industry has undergone an amazing change in the past 5 years and with it the demands of higher standards of service from fewer providers. Market Line sees its association with Opteon and our fellow members nationally as a key to delivering sustainable value through best practice standards, quality management and risk adverse outcomes into the future.

In 2005 Market Line co-founded a national valuation cooperative known as Opteon. Market Line took this initiative to respond proactively to the increasing interest from our clients in having an option to source co-ordinated valuation and property knowledge services beyond our immediate region of operation.

Today, Opteon comprises a substantial national network of valuers and other property professionals, providing high quality valuation and property services to a range of clients in the banking, finance, insurance, corporate and government sectors.
