RICS Americas
RICS Americas, one of five world regions of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), oversees members and activities in North, South and Central America and the Caribbean from its office in New York City.
RICS Americas oversees thousands of members working in land, property and the built environment. Its largest chapters operate in New York, Toronto, Vancouver, Los Angeles, Washington, Chicago, Kingston and Port of Spain. Qualified RICS members – who span the real estate and construction professions, including development, research, construction management, investment and consultancy – hold the MRICS (Member) or FRICS (Fellow) designation. Much like the MAI or CFA or CPA designations, the RICS qualifications demonstrate the highest standards of education, professional training and ethical conduct.
