As 2020 came to a close, the valuation industry reflected on a difficult year. We had faced a closure of the property market during lockdown, followed by implementation of business continuity plans that we never thought we’d have to do. Inspections became challenging as we sought to protect ourselves and our customers and the re-opened market was seeing record breaking activity. As we (hopefully) approach a new normal, what have we learnt? How did we perform and has anything changed? This talk will look at:

• Market activity during this period
• The rise and challenges of desk top valuations
• Cladding- to EWS1 or not to EWS1!
• Warranties and PCCs – the fall out from Hart v Large
• A few interesting case studies from 2020/2021
