Abstract
Consumers, be they individuals or companies, rely on professional advice supplied by surveyors. With specific commentary often required on individual local markets, it is imperative that we understand the limits to our knowledge and understanding of different areas. This paper examines the issues relating to the transportability and dissemination of knowledge. It considers how knowledge is disseminated, if local knowledge is transportable, and how these issues impact on practice.
