As a Registered Valuer, Claire has completed valuations for a wide variety of private sector, corporate and institutional clients.
Organised and efficient, she provides specialist valuations and professional advice, principally for taxation purposes, secured lending, accounting and dispute resolution across a range of rural property types.
One thing Claire enjoys about her role is the diversity of clients and properties she works with. Friendly yet dedicated, she finds that building a strong rapport with her clients is a vital aspect of her work and has worked with many clients for 20 years.
Claire’s experience lies in the niche sector of rural estates, farms and agricultural assets, including farm storage and processing sites, intensive livestock buildings, renewable energy schemes, together with country homes and equestrian property. She has a unique specialism in the horseracing sector.
She holds the Advanced Professional Award in Expert Witness Level 7 BTEC and has given evidence in court.
Claire enjoys being outside and visiting her clients’ sites, but also the technical challenge of providing valuations on such a variety of property in view of changing legislation and fluctuating market and economic conditions.
