Valuation and surveying roundtable

Tuesday 10 November 2026, 13.00 to 16.00Glasgow. Venue confirmed on registration.Chair. Kevin Telford, Crosstide

Purpose

A closed room of six chartered surveying firms, three AVM providers, three lender valuation policy leads and one insurer. Three hours, Chatham House. We test three propositions. One, that valuation contributes to a governed record rather than replaces it. Two, that confidence is a professional service, not a marketing claim. Three, that clean room evaluation is the safest route to shared model use. Output. A joint statement on valuation in a governed property spine.

Audience

Chartered surveyors. AVM providers. Panel managers. Valuation policy leads at lenders and insurers.

Output

A one page joint statement, Chatham House, signed off within seven days of the event.
