Estate Surveying and Valuation is one of
the professions in the built environment that requires the
use and application of Information and Communication
Technology (ICT) in the various areas of its practice.
Such ICT devices and applications include computers,
networks, hardware, software, satellite and so on. This
paper sets to examine the extent to which Estate
Surveyors and Valuers apply ICT in performing their
professional tasks so as to assess its contribution to their
practice. A 5-point Likert scale structured questionnaire
was administered to Estate Surveyors and Valuers both in
the public and private practice in Ogun State. Relative
Importance Index (RII) was used to analyse the data
obtained from the survey. The study shows that the estate
surveyors and valuers are aware of the existence of the
various ICT applications and devices but have not been
using them effectively to promote their practice. They
however, ascribed their inability to use it to poor level of
training. The study concluded that there is need for
improvement in the curriculum of various educational and
professional institutions involved in the training of Estate
Management Students across the country. Regular intraining
on the use of ICT applications and devices was
also suggested as a means of improving the ICT
knowledge of the Estate Surveyors and Valuers
