Double Celebration For Estate Agents In Leicestershire

May 20, 2010 - PRLog -- THE champagne corks have been popping at Harrison Murray’s Wigston and Halford Street branches - with staff celebrating industry exam success.

Wigston branch manager Jennie Andrews and Leicester lettings manager Clark Gordon are the latest employees to be recognised in their respective estate agency fields.

Jennie has been studying for the NAEA Technical Award for the Sale of Residential Property for the past six months, and has recently completed all four parts of the qualification.  

The National Association of Estate Agents is the leading professional body for estate agents, and membership of the Association can only be gained by passing the Technical Award exams.

The award signifies that the individual has a sound grasp of the basics of residential property law, construction and all aspects of estate agency practice.

Meanwhile, Clark has passed the National Federation of Property Professional (NFOPP) Technical Award in residential letting and property management – the industry standard for all agents working in this area.

It is also the required qualification for entry to the Association of Residential Lettings Agents (ARLA), which is the UK’s only professional, self-regulating body specialising in the private rented sector.

As part of its on-going commitment to excellence in customer service and the career development of staff, Harrison Murray runs a sponsorship scheme to enable employees to study for and qualify in the various awards.

Harrison Murray development director Jackie Scotten said: “We strive to give an excellent professional service to our clients and sponsoring our staff to take the Technical Award demonstrates our commitment to provide that service

“We are delighted that a substantial number of our employees have chosen to follow this process through, and have qualified as true property professionals.”



Harrison Murray are long-standing members of the NAEA and the Property Ombudsman scheme.
