Panel of Valuers
The Tenant Farming Commissioner has established a panel of qualified and suitably experienced valuers to carry out valuations as required under new relinquishment and assignation legislation. Please see below for the list of panel members.
If tenant and landlord wish to agree a preferred valuer please contact valuers directly for more information and to discuss your requirements. Where landlord and tenant agree on a preferred valuer they should notify the TFC via the tenant’s notice of intention to relinquish, and confirm that a fee has been agreed with the valuer.
Where tenant and landlord do not put forward an agreed preferred valuer, the TFC will invite proposals from panel members to provide a fees plus expenses quote for the valuation based on the information provided to the TFC by the tenant in the notice of intention to relinquish. The TFC will consider submissions from panel members and select one taking into account the fee proposal and any specific knowledge and experience.
Please note that any valuer appointed by the TFC, including a nominated agreed preferred valuer, must be independent of both landlord and tenant.
