Why it's so important that your Letting Agent is an ARLA member

NOT ALL AGENTS ARE REGULATED

Most landlords do not realise that the industry is unfortunately not regulated! Anyone can set up as an agent and every year agents without experience or training cause huge problems and financial difficulties for Landlords.

MY COMPANY VOLUNTEERS TO HAVE OUR ACCOUNTS INSPECTED BY NEUTRAL EXPERTS

As an ARLA licensed member, companies have to submit accountant’s reports every year to ensure that client money is being processed correctly.  Professional indemnity insurance is checked annually and paying client money into a protection scheme ensures Landlord confidence. Our experience is also underpinned by membership of an independent redress scheme.

 ARLA CHECK MY QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE; IT ISN’T SIMPLY A BADGE THAT I CAN BE BOUGHT

ARLA Licensed members need to hold NFoPP (National Federation of Property Professionals) Awarding Body qualifications or equivalent. As an ARLA Licensed member you have to follow Rules of Conduct and adhere to best practice guidelines.
