Three Matthews at property regeneration consultants AspinallVerdi have qualified as members of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS).

Despite enduring a longer than anticipated wait to sit their final assessment because of the pandemic, Matthew Scott, Matthew Olive and Matthew Wroe have all become chartered surveyors.

Associate director Matthew Scott, based at the head office of AspinallVerdi in Leeds, is also a chartered town planner with experience of advising on planning and development for determination of site-specific planning applications and evidence-based work at area-wide level.

He advises public and private-sector clients on affordable housing viability and provided feasibility studies for key town-centre regeneration sites in Tamworth, Flitwick and Hucknall. His experience also includes area-wide strategies such as a masterplan for Park Royal Centre.

Matthew Wroe, a senior consultant also based at Leeds, joined AspinallVerdi in April 2016 and subsequently graduated from the University of Salford with a Master’s degree in Real Estate and Property Management. He began his career with the firm as a property research analyst assisting colleagues in data collection and market analysis. 

Matthew has a wide range of experience, providing property market advice and the preparation of development appraisals for a Development Framework on Guernsey to preparing a plan viability assessment for Northumberland National Park. 

More recently, Matthew advised Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council by undertaking independent viability assessment reviews on schemes submitted by developers and assisted landscape architects and transport engineers on a masterplanning/feasibility study in Malton and Norton.

Based in the London office of AspinallVerdi, senior consultant Matthew Olive joined  in January 2019 after graduating from University College London with a Master’s degree in International Real Estate & Planning. He has advised a public and private-sector clientele across the UK, specialising in viability (site-specific and plan-wide), masterplanning, town centre regeneration, business needs assessment, strategic consultancy and policy appraisal.

Atam Verdi, chairman of AspinallVerdi, said: “Despite the lengthy delay in being able to sit their final assessment caused by the pandemic, qualifying as members of the RICS is testament to the hard work, dedication and commitment of our three Matthews and I join everyone at AspinallVerdi in congratulating them on their well deserved success.”
