About Us
NAEA Propertymark protects and guides consumers, helping people to buy and sell their treasured homes. We work to raise professional standards among estate agents from single branch independents to large national groups, promoting education and qualifications within the sector. More than 10,500 estate agent offices are NAEA Propertymark Protected, all meeting higher standards than the law demands and through this we offer greater protection to consumers.
What Makes NAEA Propertymark Protected Agents Different?
1 Integrity
NAEA Propertymark estate agents are experienced and trained professionals who abide by a nationally recognised Code of Practice.
2 Complaints Procedure
Ruling on complaints through independent ombudsman services and regulated by Propertymark.
3 Peace of Mind
They hold all the correct insurance and protection to give you peace of mind through your move.
4 Compliant
Registered with HMRC to ensure compliance with money laundering regulations.
NAEA (National Association of Estate Agents) evolved into NAEA Propertymark in February 2017, working with sister organisations ARLA Propertymark, NAVA Propertymark, NAEA Commercial and Propertymark Qualifications to improve the options available to consumers. By holding our members accountable and by empowering consumers with knowledge and advice, we protect consumers and their money.
We aim to reassure all of those buying and selling property that estate agents who display the Propertymark Protected logo offer better protection for their clients: Client Money Protection, Professional Indemnity insurance, membership of an independent redress scheme. Members are also subject to Propertymark Conduct and Membership Rules and disciplinary procedures with sanctions for those who fall below the expected standards. Anyone using an agent displaying the Propertymark Protected logo will be confident that their agent is guiding them on their property journey.
NAEA Commercial - formerly the Institution of Commercial & Business Agents (ICBA) - promotes professionalism and best practice in commercial and business transfer agents.
#LOOKFORTHELOGO - Make sure you use an agent displaying the Propertymark Protected logo.
The Propertymark website allows you to search for estate agents, letting agents, auctioneers, valuers, commercial agents and inventory providers who are part of the ‘Propertymark Protected’ scheme and therefore ideal partners to work with you whatever your property search.
