About The Built Environment Investor
Surveyor After being a practitioner and academic for over 40 years, I now buy and sell shares in companies specialising within the many sectors that combine to make a Built Environment Portfolio.
Despite stopping work to focus on my portfolio of investments I have retained membership of the RICS as well as the CIOB and Higher Education Academy as I am occasionally asked to write courses, modules, lecture and mark scripts. I am also involved in assessing candidates for the RICS.
