The valuation of real estate investment assets plays a critical role in supporting confident markets and economic stability. To future proof practices in this area, RICS commissioned a valuation review, and an important conclusion of the review was to ensure there is more clarity and transparency in the use of valuation methods. This week on The RICS Podcast Charlotte Neal leads us in a discussion around this review and the implementation of its recommendations.

Charlotte, Director of Surveying Standards at RICS, is joined by CEO of LendInvest Rod Lockhart to discuss the changing economy and its effects on the real estate market, as well as some of the key findings around DCF valuation.

This episode of The RICS Podcast covers:

• Recent changes in the economy and the effects on the real estate market
• Attitudes in the market towards lending for developers
• The creation of VRIC (Valuation Review Implementation Committee)
• DCF valuation and its role as a primary and supporting valuation method
