I found the SAVA residential valuation course to be really well put together. The online lectures and reading materials are clear, structured, and easy to follow, which makes learning valuation concepts much more manageable, especially alongside work.The assessment stage was definitely challenging, particularly as it’s distance learning, but in a good way. The assessors are very supportive and ask the right questions to get you thinking properly as a valuer, rather than just ticking boxes. The feedback they give is genuinely helpful and pushes you to improve your judgement and approach.The only small downside for me was the exam preparation material. While the course content itself is strong, the material aimed at preparing you for the final exam didn’t fully reflect the style of the exam questions, which were a bit different to what I expected. That said, it’s a minor issue in the grand scheme of things.Overall, the course is really beneficial if you want to get into residential valuation the right way and build a solid foundation. I also have to mention the admin team at SAVA, who are excellent, always quick to respond, proactive, and genuinely go out of their way to help and support you through the process.I’d definitely recommend the SAVA course to anyone serious about going into valuation surveying.
