"Doing what I love and loving what I do for the last 50 years"

I qualified in 1971. Post qualification experience was working for the Freshwater Group in their commercial property department and as PA to the founder Mr Osais Freshwater. I formed my own practice preparing building survey reports and valuations of residential property in 1979. I worked in Hong Kong for the Royal Hong Kong Jockey Club from 1980-2002. I re-established my own practice in 2003 in Wimbledon, London SW19. I retired as senior partner of Scrivener Tibbatts – Chartered Surveyors in October 2017 but I am retained as Consultant. I also run my own much smaller niche practice dealing with specialist valuations and party walls for those with whom I wish to work.

Expert Witness Reports

DO YOU THINK WE WILL GET ON?

I have a wide range of interests and hobbies, some have developed  for me into  passions. One of these passions is following the progress of nine grandchildren.  I am very lucky! 

I reserve six weeks every year for skiing; I play golf at least twice a week (when I am not skiing!).  I love cooking. 

I spent 20 years working for the Royal Hong Kong Jockey Club as a horse racing official (Official Starter 1986 – 2000), property advisor and chief administrator for one of the first programs to care for the needs of retired racehorses when their racing careers have ended.  A lot of what I started in 1986 in Hong Kong is now followed in UK – Rehabilitation of Retired Racehorses.

I am a member of two syndicates owning two race horses; one on the flat with George Baker and a national hunt horse with Richard Phillips.

Both George and Richard adore their horses with a passion they do not hide, they are good trainers, good communicators and they ensure that the syndicates of which I am a member have enormous fun.   I hold a qualification from the BHS (British Horse Society) as a riding instructor.

I enjoy helping those who need the property valuation and property administrative skills which I have obtained over a ‘few years’ through qualification and experience. I am sometimes asked ….’Isn’t it about time you retired?

My answer – ‘Why should I retire while I am enjoying working (but not too hard); I enjoy keeping myself up to date. I enjoy helping people who ask me to help them and for whom I would like to work’.
