New Licensing Regulations
We're delighted to be one of the first agents in the country to have recently received our license from the National Association of Estate Agents (NAEA). This qualification is unique to NAEA estate agents and is the only license of its kind in the UK property industry.
A licensed estate agency branch means consumers are guaranteed that at least one agent within that branch is qualified in residential property sales, either through a formal qualification or through length of membership of the NAEA.
At its launch in the House of Commons in November, the licensing scheme was given the backing of Grant Shapps, Housing Minister and Alison Seabeck, Shadow Housing Minister. Shapps said: “By ensuring they enjoy the trust of people buying and selling homes, estate agents will inject greater confidence and movement in the housing market. “In Future anyone looking to buy a home or sell theirs should ask the simple question of their estate agents – “are you licensed by the NAEA?”
Focused on providing the best customers service for you
Peter Bolton King, chief executive of the NAEA, said: “I am delighted to confirm that MATTHEW LIMB ESTATE AGENTS is now fully licensed. “We would like all sellers and buyers to ask their prospective agents, “Do you have an NAEA license?” If they don’t, they should ask themselves whether that’s the agent from whom they will get the best service when marketing their property. “In a difficult economic time it is important for anyone placing a home on the market to use a professional, knowledgeable agent. NAEA members know their local area and know their local market. That is very important to consumers.”
