Tom joined Rapleys in August 2021 as a Senior Surveyor in the Affordable Housing and Viability team after nearly 4 years at Dalcour Maclaren Chartered Surveyors, where he provided development consultancy and valuation advice for a range of utility and infrastructure companies.
Tom has experience in providing clients with detailed development valuation advice for residential and mixed use sites, with a particular emphasis on identifying opportunities to maximise value.

He has also advised in relation to the acquisition of new assets and provided reasoned advice in relation to commercial risk and market context.
