Bio
Paul S. Wood MSc FRICS ACIArb IMaPS
Since joining Vantage, Gavin has been a breath of fresh air to the team. It can be hard to settle into new roles, but Gavin showed how adaptable he is an individual, and his past work life plus attitude enabled him to make this leap successfully. Commercially minded, a leader and organised individual make him hard to fault, but knows his weaknesses, which is a mature attitude. I have worked with many dilapidation surveyors, including many self-proclaimed experts, but Gavin is one of the best. Reason being communication and commerciality. Thanks for the contribution to the Vantage team, Gavin.
James Lander
An important client of mine was concerned about the high cost of a buildings reinstatement cost assessment for one of their managed sites. They asked me if I knew anybody who provided this service so I recommended Gavin. He came in with an extremely competitive tender which delighted my client and created additional credibility to the relationship . Thanks Gavin
