Private Valuations

Valuation matters to us all. Valuations underpin nearly all financial decisions from simple property purchases to major investment and corporate finance transactions or stock exchange listings. In short, all those who occupy, own, develop or trade in today's sophisticated economy rely on competent and impartial valuers.

As part of its commitment to protect the public interest and to ensure that all valuation advice is to the highest professional standards, RICS introduced a Valuer Registration Scheme in April 2011. The scheme assures the quality of valuations - a key component underpinning most economic activity and raised credibility of its valuers. It provides clients with a clearly identifiable designation for the best regulated and qualified professionals in the field.
