Avison Young announces its entry into the Social and Affordable Housing Valuation market with the recruitment of a specialist team, led by Director Nick Worman.

Nick has more than 25 years’ experience in the sector providing advice to banks and Registered Providers and, until recently, led a similar team at Bruton Knowles. He is joined by Lisa Roberts, Associate Director and Stuart Randall, Senior Surveyor.

The team will join the wider Valuation Consultancy department at Avison Young, which comprises 175 registered valuers who operate from 15 offices across the UK, covering all sectors of the market for a range of banks, investors and public sector clients.

Peter O’Brien, Principal and Managing Director commented:
“We have noticed an increase in client demand for specialist affordable housing valuation advice and we are responding to this by growing our expert valuation consultancy team. I look forward to welcoming Nick, Lisa and Stuart to the firm to deepen the services we can provide to our clients.”

Nick said:
“I am delighted to be joining Avison Young. The Affordable Housing sector continues to go through a period of significant growth, and I am looking forward to working with Peter to capitalise on Avison Young’s platform. The initial feedback from our sector contacts has been extremely encouraging.”
