High standards
Our high standards of professionalism are reflected in our membership of both the National Association of Estate Agents and the Ombudsman of Estate Agents. These bodies have very strict rules of conduct both in terms of how we run our business and how we look after our clients’ money. Our membership also means we are kept informed of all the very latest changes in legislation that effect our industry. We have Professional indemnity insurance, public liability insurance and client money protection that covers any monies held in our client account. Limeys Estate Agents are also approved by the Office of Fair Trading (OFT).
Client Money Protection
From 6th April 2007, all deposits taken by landlords and letting agents for Assured Shorthold Tenancies in England & Wales, must be protected by a tenancy deposit protection scheme. Limeys Estate Agents have such a scheme in place and that means you are freed from this obligation should you choose to use us.
