Fergal O'Neill
DipRSV, AssocRICS | Director & Surveyor | RICS Registered Valuer
I’m Fergal, a Director and Surveyor and a RICS Registered Valuer. I hold the DipRSV, which means I’m formally qualified in residential property surveying and valuation, and I’m an AssocRICS member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, the globally recognised professional body that sets high standards for competence and ethics.
As the Lead Surveyor and Director of Cornerstone, I take a practical, hands-on approach to my work. I focus on giving clear, honest advice and reliable valuations, cutting through the jargon and working closely with clients so they feel confident and informed when making property decisions.
