“In her 70 years on the throne she has seen an incredible amount of social, political and economic change, most recently receiving her fifteenth Prime Minister. As well as serving as the head of her country, she was the head of her family and our thoughts are with them in her loss.”

And a statement from the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, posted on its website, says: “We would like to express our deepest sadness and condolences at the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Ruling for longer than any Monarch in British history, her lifelong devotion and commitment to public service as Sovereign for the UK and Commonwealth will never be forgotten.

“Having just celebrated her Platinum Jubilee earlier this year, the public were reminded of her selfless commitment to her role as both a unifying and steadfast figurehead throughout seven decades of change.

“Her Majesty the Queen was the longest serving patron of RICS, and we had the privilege of welcoming her to the RICS London Headquarters to mark our 150-year celebration in 2018. During her visit, the Queen toured the building and met members of the profession – a truly momentous occasion for all involved. Her presence on this day and her unwavering commitment to her RICS patronage will remain a special and important part of our history.

“Our heartfelt sympathies lie with the Royal Family at this time of mourning.”

Paul Smith, chief executive of Spicerhaart, comments: "We join the nation, and indeed the world, in grieving our monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, who has served our country so graciously for 70 years. We are very lucky, as a country, to have had such an amazing, hard-working Queen who put her country before self and we can learn many lessons from her selfless behaviour and support of others throughout her whole life.”

And Lesley Roberts, president of the Build To Rent membership organisation UKAA adds: "Few individuals have given so much for so many years in the name of public duty as HRH Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty has been an inspiration to so many around the world throughout her 70 years of service. Her death is a true national loss. The Queen provided inspiration and guidance not only to the UK but to nations across the globe, uniting communities through the Commonwealth and encouraging cross-cultural understanding and engagement."
