We are delighted to announce that Isabella Pyne has passed her assessment to become a professional member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. Given the disruption over the last few years, this is a major achievement on Bella’s behalf and represents a successful conclusion to two years of work-related study and experience with Acorn RPC. Being a member of the RICS is the pre-eminent qualification for advisors in the rural and other property sectors and demonstrates a combination of technical knowledge across a wide range of competencies, and a commitment to maintaining the highest professional standards. Many congratulations from us to Isabella Pyne MRICS!
