The launch of new Diplomas in Residential Surveying and Valuation take place at the Residential Property Surveyors Association annual conference next week.
These new qualifications, formally recognised by RICS, will set new standards for residential surveyors and valuers and provide both a pathway into the SAVA Scheme and a pathway into the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors as an associate member according to the RPSA.
The primary aim of the new qualifications is to bring consistency and clarity to home buying consumers: currently only 20 per cent of them choose to commission a condition-based survey when buying homes.
The conference, which takes place on Tuesday at the Building Research Establishment in Watford, will hear from housing market commentator Kate Faulkner, Paul Broadhead of the Building Societies Association and Peter Bolton King, Global Residential Director of RICS.
