Valuation information papers
View valuation information papers
Valuation information papers are intended to provide information and explanations to RICS members on specific topics of relevance to the profession. The function of valuation information papers is not to recommend or advise on professional procedures to be followed by surveyors.
They are, however, relevant to professional competence to the extent that a surveyor should be up to date and should have informed him or herself of new valuation information papers within a reasonable time of their promulgation.
Members should note that when an allegation of professional negligence is made against a surveyor, the court is likely to take account of the contents of any relevant valuation information papers published by the RICS in deciding whether or not the surveyor has acted with reasonable competence.
Valuation information papers are available for members to download free of charge. They can also be accesed via our award winning subscription service, isurv.
