Plett Estate Agents police their own conduct

Plettenberg Bay Estate Agents have joined forces to set their own standards of conduct to ensure a high standard of compliance. Most Agencies support the concept, with only a few not wishing to participate. Remax Principal Graham Anley chairs the meetings and initial discussions have mainly centered around estate agent For Sale and Show House boards.

The Municipality used to monitor Estate Agent Boards, but some six months ago their employee resigned and a subsequent new appointment only lasted a month. This is when Brokers, led by Graham decided to take charge of their own conduct. Meetings are held every second month and the cooperation amongst Agencies has improved markedly. Open communication now exists amongst Brokers and there has been a marked improvement in levels of conduct regarding the use and placement of boards.

The forum is an excellent one which will result in further cooperation in future and a number of additional issues will be tackled in due course. Everything possible will be done to welcome the Agencies who have thus far chosen to ignore invitations to attend the meetings.

    So glad to hear that some agents are actually prepared to take responsibility for conduct and would appreciate improvements in this regard in all areas! You know who you are!
