My name is Doug Parker and I hope to provide you with the information you are likely to need to begin your venture into property speculation. I hold a BSc (Hons) in Property Management from The University of Reading (acknowledged as being one of very finest institutions for property-related studies in the world). I also have a background as a Commercial Property Surveyor, working with corporate clients to negotiate the best terms available to them and plans that fit in with their businesses. I have experience in the valuation field of the Residential Property sector too. I now work independently. It’s taken me quite a few years to learn what I know about property. However, it will not take you as long as that. I filter out all the superfluous information, to allow you to absorb only what you will need.
