UK&I Valuation Conference 2024 - Recorded 06/03/2024

2023 proved a demanding year for the valuation sector under additional strain from the continuing energy cost crisis, supply chain issues, rising interest rates and lurking economic challenges. It now becomes important to take stock of the challenges faced and find solutions and answers to the biggest questions facing the valuation sector:

• How can the UK national supplement reflect changes in the market and present opportunity to implement relevant recommendations?
• How can we accurately calculate VAT under challenging circumstances?

• What needs to be known about general disclosures and what is the responsibility of the valuer?
• How do online auctions continue to challenge the valuation market?
• What are the RICS Standards and Updates that the valuation sector needs to be aware of?

For 2024, we will be answering these questions alongside specific breakouts for an in-depth understanding of the various valuation specialisms.
