A large part of the role as estate agents is to be diligent, particularly when dealing with offers and personal data, so we work hard to make sure we have substantial procedures in place to deal with Anti-Money Laundering and GDPR's as well as following the guidelines relating to Consumer Protection Regulations, so it is great to receive a comment that draws reference to not only the quality of service but the processes and importance of doing the job correctly. ...
