Mark has qualified ...
Since qualifying I have become a key part of the Valuation Services team within
Christie & Co. I have enjoyed gaining experience across all of the specialist
licensed and leisure sectors, with no two days ever proving to be the same.
Whilst I am often asked what a typical day would entail, the truth is that there is
no such thing as a 'typical day’. The constant variety of care homes, pharmacies,
hotels, retail premises, development sites, to name but a few, means that my
role as a Valuation Surveyor is always different with fresh challenges provided
on a weekly basis. |
