Land agents enter into partnership with FVSS

A leading rural land and estate agent has joined into a partnership with Farm Valuation Services Scotland (FVSS).

Bell Ingram has announced the arrangement which comes in response to a sustained buoyancy in the farming sector.

"The farming sector has been indicating considerable demand for this type of specialist service for some time so we are delighted to be leading the field with this partnership" said director Mark Mitchell.

FVSS is headed by farm valuation expert and Chartered Surveyor, Grant Turnbull, who created the business.

Farm valuations constitute a very specific type of surveying work and require the comprehensive assessment of a range of factors which affect the final value.


"This collaboration with Bell Ingram will allow our combined areas of knowledge and expertise to be pooled to deliver a robust farm agency service to clients" Grant said.

Experience gained through roles with United Auctions and CKD Galbraith has allowed Grant to develop close relationships with farmers and associated professionals, making his knowledge of the sector second-to-none and he advises on all types of rural properties; from small holdings to large-scale agricultural enterprises.
