Roger Lunt, a well-known and well respected local RICS Chartered Surveyor and Valuer, and Estate Agent in Oswestry for many years has announced his retirement.
He trained at Hammersmith and West London College. Qualified as an Associate of The Incorporated Society of Valuers and Auctioneers in 1983, progressing to Fellow in 1994, and joining The Royal institute of Chartered Surveyors in January 2000 as a Fellow. A career as a property professional of over 40 years.
He started his career with Hall Wateridge & Owen. He was also an auctioneer at Oswestry Livestock Auctions for a period when working for Bowen Son & Watson, and later, with another well know surveyor Michael Tomley, started their own business, known as Lunt Tomley Surveyors and Estate Agents. Lunt Tomley then merged with Morris Marshall & Poole in 2004, where Roger was a partner in the firm until his retirement at the end of 2024.
During his career he has probably visited hundreds and hundreds of properties and I’m sure
there is not many a street in the town and surrounding villages that he has not been to. I’m sure he could tell many tales about some of the properties he has visited in the course of his work, and the numerous characters along the way.
He is well respected by fellow colleagues, industry professionals and solicitors’ firms in the town, who have repeatedly used and recommended his services over the years.
He is described by many as “a thoroughly nice gentleman”.
I’m sure his many clients, friends and colleagues, past and present will join us in wishing Roger a long and happy retirement, where he now hopes to spend much more quality time with his wife Jane, their children and grandchildren, and also have the time to do some travelling.
