Estate Agent's Body "Hijacked" by Outside Groups, Real Estate Firm Claims
MARBELLA,Spain, August 20 /PRNewswire/ -- A leading real estate company
is considering whether to continue as a member of the National Association of
Estate Agents (NAEA), due to concerns that the body may be being used as a
platform for libellous comments against it.
MRI Overseas Property, the largest overseas real estate firm inEurope,
has expressed its "astonishment and concern" at recent actions by the
UK-based NAEA.
Dominic Pickering, MRI Overseas Property's chief operating officer, said:
"MRI has always been a great believer in professional associations, but
only if they are used in the correct way.
"We have a real concern that the NAEA's impartiality as an industry body
is being hijacked by a number of outside interests acting together.
"We are hoping that the NAEA can demonstrate it is not being affected by
these outside forces, but if it cannot, we will have no option but to take
further action to protect our reputation as necessary."
