How we work

Our process

You’ll always have a direct line to your specialist, whether you’re working with us on a valuation or need advice on your investments.

Between us, we’ve many decades of market expertise and trusted relationships with lenders which means your high value assets are in experienced and reliable hands. Our extensive knowledge of a wide range of property market sectors provides you with precise, insightful evaluations to empower you to make informed decisions.

Step One

Instruction revieved

Submitted directly from you or via your lender’s panel management system, every instruction is assigned to a chartered surveyor with the right regional and sector expertise.

Step Two

Site inspection

Our surveyor visits your property to assess its position, location and market context to ensure a robust and accurate valuation.

Step Three

Valuation & analysis

We cross reference our findings with live market data and comparable evidence before a second chartered surveyor reviews and signs off the valuation.

Step Four

Report delivered

We send your team a clear RICS-compliant report, typically within xx working days, ready to support your lending decision.

Every report we produce goes through two layers 
of review.

Once your surveyor has completed their assessment, a second chartered surveyor checks the findings against live market data and comparable evidence before anything is signed off.

It’s this extra step that gives lenders, businesses and individuals confidence in our reports — because every valuation reflects the judgement of two experienced surveyors, not one. Whatever the complexity of your instruction, you can rely on a report that’s been through a rigorous, RICS-compliant process from start to finish.

The expertise of a national company with the personal touch of a small team.
