Episode Details

The beginning of a client relationship is a key factor in the smooth running of your work with them in the future, so there are a number of considerations to make when setting up your initial agreement.

Complementing a new piece of advice available on the RICS website, we’re joined on The RICS Podcast by John Baguley (Countrywide Surveying Services) and Gerard Smith (Lacy Scott & Knight) to discuss their experience in good practice, common pitfalls, and how to set expectations effectively from day one.

This episode of The RICS Podcast covers:

• The key considerations when starting a new piece of work
• How we can educate private consumers to improve the briefs they provide
• The potential for your reports to be used for purposes beyond their original intent
• Whether it’s shrewd to consider publishing prices, and the challenge of talking money with customers
