About Chris Miles MRICS
Expert in industrial agency, logistics and the trade counter market in Bristol and the South West/South Wales
After graduating from University West of England with a 2:1 in Real Estate Management & Valuation, I joined King Sturge in 2003. During my early training I worked within the Retail Agency, and Valuations & Rating teams gaining valuable experience and grounding. I qualified (MRICS) and joined the Industrial & Logistics team in 2005 including a secondment in 2007 with logistics firm Wincanton, prior to the merger with JLL in 2011.
Over the 13 years I have built up an in-depth knowledge of the regional Industrial and logistics markets with an expertise in the trade counter market. I've acted for numerous property funds, property companies, developers, private individuals and trade counter and logistics occupiers. I joined Russell Property Consultants in 2016 as think that as a niche practice, you can be more focused on providing an excellent service to clients and creating strong working relationships.
