The Company

Established estate agency Stirling Ackroyd, with over 35 UK branches, leveraged Aprao to streamline their surveying team's processes. This resulted in faster valuation turnaround times and more professional reports, boosting client satisfaction and project value.

The Challenge

Dean Wood's team initially encountered Aprao through a colleague and now considers it essential. Aprao's intuitive interface and accurate calculations improved report quality and consistency. The instant PDF generation and sensitivity analysis tool further streamlined workflows and impressed lenders with the depth of analysis. Wood emphasises Aprao's role in saving time, reducing errors, and allowing his team to focus on high-value client services. Aprao's user-friendly onboarding ensured a smooth transition and quick adoption.

The Result

Stirling Ackroyd's surveyors have successfully completed over 150 appraisals using Aprao, finding it to be significantly faster (50% less time) than their previous Excel methods. They leverage Aprao's versatility for various projects, from residential developments (10-60 units) to retail units and mixed-use buildings. This efficiency allows them to respond quickly to diverse site needs and maintain strong lender relationships.
