Course description
Are you looking at developing and improving your valuation skills? This training webinar series will provide you with the knowledge and understanding of property valuation that is fundamental to providing appropriate valuation advice.
Do you contract or work alongside RICS registered Valuers? Do you need to read and analyze valuation reports as part of your role?
Professional valuations are used in a vast range of contexts – from making decisions on lending and finance to helping people choose their new home. But how are the final values being calculated, what are the assumptions, and what are the risks?
This course will help you to understand how valuers work and the methods they use to reach a final property value. This can help you to engage valuers with more confidence and understand the reports they produce.
Our trainer, a RICS Valuer and Fellow with a wealth of practical experience, will explain in detail the valuation methods and answer all your questions about the valuation process.
