Propertymark
Professional organisation for estate agents in the UK
Propertymark (formerly National Association of Estate Agents or NAEA) is a membership organisation for estate agents (called real estate brokers in the US). It is based in and covers the UK. It is the UK's leading professional body for estate agents.[1] Its members practice across all aspects of property in the UK, including residential and commercial sales and letting, property management, business transfer, auctioneering and land.[2]
Founded in 1962 by estate agent and entrepreneur Raymond Andrews,[3] the NAEA was established with the goal of upholding good practice and high professional standards in UK estate agency. This struck a chord with the industry at a time when there was little representation for estate agents and has allowed the Association to grow phenomenally over the years.[2]
