What is a Chartered Surveyor?

The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors is the regulatory body based in London that governs 120,000 members worldwide who advise on all aspects of property development, investment, and management.

Although it’s a British Institution you will find the most prominent and successful property advisory businesses across the world, New York, Madrid, and Tokyo are firms of Chartered Surveyors.

To become one you have to do a specialist degree and then undertake a period of practical training and further examinations.

To remain one you have to continuously update and refresh your training and knowledge in a programme of continuous professional development.

More importantly you have to follow strict rules of ethical behaviour.

Chartered Surveyors must act in their clients best interests or they are thrown out of the profession and publicly named.
