At one time ISVA was able to provide access to BCIS online for members
The cost to individuals is colossal, but of course RICS give handsome discounts to the large firms
Would there be any appetite for obtaining an ISVA Group subscription, even if that meant making an additional annual contribution
Agree, it isnt cost effective on an individual basis. Yet another RICS rip off. If ISVA could obtain a group account that I would welcome this proposal – I know it used to be included albeit some time ago.
There is a basic consumer version on the BCIS site which you can use without charge for a limited number of calculations. Insurance companies now do not always ask for a figure, just amount of accommodation and age etc, so i don’t feel it worth providing a figure unless specifically requested.
