ESTATE AGENTS' VALUATIONS (EDM1858)

ESTATE AGENTS' VALUATIONS

EDM number 1858 in 2005-06, proposed by Gregory Campbell on 21/03/2006.

That this House notes that many estate agents across the UK carry out their business in a legal, justifiable and exemplary fashion; is concerned at the number of reported incidents involving a small number of estate agents who appear to be able to invent offers for properties and falsely inflate estimated valuations to enhance possible commissions; recognises the lack of regulation which exists in the industry; commends those reputable journalists who have helped expose some practices; and calls upon the Government to ascertain the extent of this activity and to implement such legislation as is necessary to prevent abuses of this type.

This motion has been signed by a total of 33 MPs.
