Associate at Sheppard Robson Architects LLP

Brilliant support throughout the APC process.

Excellent Counsellor feedback and mentoring experience. Property Elite were flexible enough to work outside of my office hours and gave me constructive feedback on my level of knowledge and all submissions.

I found that the mandatory competency revision resources covered all topics to the required levels.

My Question Pack provided a good volume of questions specific to my case study and SOE. It was very useful as this mostly covered what I was asked in the interview.

My e-mock interview and feedback provided a balanced critique of my performance. It gave me a good idea of the intensity of the interview process and quantum of knowledge required, whilst still being positive and supportive.

Overall Property Elite were great, and genuinely nice people to work with!

Senior Property Manager at Fry & Co

I am extremely grateful for the support I received from Property Elite during my APC preparation.

The mentoring was practical, focused and genuinely invaluable in helping me understand where I needed to improve, which, at the beginning, felt like almost every area!

The team (Rachel, Bernadette, Michelle and Paul) were incredibly supportive throughout the process, while also challenging me in the areas where I lacked confidence. The mock interview and preparation sessions helped me feel much more prepared for the final assessment and gave me the confidence to approach the interview in a more structured and professional way. They were also able to advise when I needed further support, including with my presentation and additional interview preparation.

In particular, Paul’s interview preparation was outstanding. He had a real ability to identify the areas I had not fully prepared, or did not fully understand, and push me on them in a constructive way. Although it was challenging at the time, it made such a difference and ultimately helped me perform better on the day.

I would highly recommend Property Elite to anyone preparing for their APC. Their guidance, encouragement and honest feedback made a huge difference, and I genuinely do not think I would have passed without their support.

For me, Property Elite made all the difference.

After an unsuccessful solo attempt at the APC (SPA route) last year, Property Elite were the game-changer I needed.

Rachel immediately explained what I needed to concentrate on and what I shouldn’t worry about.

The question packs provided a huge but solid foundation to work on.

But it was the mock interviews were the real turning point—they were diverse, challenging, and prepared me for every possible scenario. They showed my areas of weakness and it prepared me for anything.

The team was incredibly responsive, even arranging last-minute mock sessions and answered my questions to ensure I was ready.

Would recommend to anyone looking to take the professional route on the SPA pathway.

As the first person in my firm on the path to becoming Chartered, I reached out to Property Elite for their support and mentorship throughout the process and couldn't recommend their services highly enough.

I worked with several people during the process but mainly Paul and Rachel who were incredibly supportive, provided structure and prepared me for my final assessment. Their knowledge, expertise and guidance were invaluable and I am so grateful to them.

Property Elite’s resources, webinars, and podcasts were also incredibly useful, giving me the knowledge and insight needed to fully understand key competencies and feel confident going into my interview.

Director at Sandy Lane Projects Ltd

Property Elite can really guide you in how to get it right!

As a Senior Professional I think it was valuable to understand what the RICS are looking for in a Chartered Professional. We can all do the work, but what do they require?

Property Elite can really guide you in how to get it right, the mock interview is also a must.

For SPA, students the interview may be like something you haven't done for a long time so well worth it.

Jonathan Miller

Jonathan Miller

Director at Grace Miller & Co.

Amazing support and guidance from Paul Matton and Rachel Saint during my SPA process.

Rachel spent a lot of time working with me to devise the best strategy for application and expertly guided me through the whole process.

Paul supported and encouraged me throughout. It was tough going, but the structure, guidance and support he gave me helped me stay focused and motivated as he expertly prepared me for my final assessment.

And not to forget all the podcasts and supporting information they made available which was all really helpful.

There were times when I thought I'd never manage it but thanks to Paul and Rachel’s expert support I passed first time.

If you’re think about becoming a Chartered Surveyor, I would thoroughly recommend that you get in touch with Property Elite today.

Property Elite were fantastic in guiding me through my RICS Senior Professional Assessment.

Their support was clear, focused, and highly professional.

Most importantly, the knowledge I gained was practical and directly applicable to my work and business.

I highly recommend them to anyone pursuing RICS accreditation, staff training, or looking to improve their business overall.

Commercial Operations Director at Mace

Thank you Property Elite team! I would highly recommend.

Delighted to have been mentored by Paul from Property Elite. He supported me throughout the process, helped me refine and improve my submission and provided me with the confidence I thought I was lacking.

Our monthly sessions kept me guided and focused and it made me feel at ease when dealing with challenging questions.

The mock exam was also super beneficial. It helped me familiarise myself with the format and James provided great feedback in preparation for the final assessment.

Thank you.

Every now and then, life is giving you a hard ride. Nothing is easy, nothing is given, a lot of doubts, but quite often you need some people that believe in you, sometimes more than you believe yourself.

Paul Matton and Jen Lemen are exact these type of people that assist and guide you through the sharp rocks, over the waves until you reach your destination.

Glad that I took this journey of MRICS with them.

They assisted, they supported, and understood me, but above all they were there with me throughout this journey.
