SAFEagent Scheme Launches To Public With Government Blessing

Housing Minister Grant Shapps

The SAFEagent scheme has now launched to the public, with a major endorsement from housing minister Grant Shapps.

The endorsement includes displaying the kitemark on the CLG website, whilst Shapps has congratulated the industry for taking matters into its own hands and urged agents not signed up to the SAFEagent scheme to do so immediately.

He announced the Government’s official support for the industry-led campaign at the same time as launching new factsheets for landlords and tenants.

In them, both tenants and landlords are specifically advised that they should seek out a SAFEagent member.
