Comparing to Belvoir's cost and track record is fine to point out a lower entry fee - But only if backed up by success rates that are similar to Belvoir. I know that Belvior, Martin & Co and Century 21 attend BFA franchise shows like us - So they will have had to show business plans, proof of concept and accounts with audited proof of successful franchisees. The British Franchise Association are very careful about who can attend at their shows. Franchisees are buying into a proven model and Belvoir have that. If we or Belvoir or any of the names mentioned are asked to give examples of franchisees earning revenue of £100k per annum, we can. Peach should base the marketing on their own success stories and not on Belvoirs.

In a recent story, 81 out of 85 agents in Sheffield were not complying with the law on publishing fees. The law is there, The enforcement isn't.

I might agree, but I had to point out that we were only complying with the Anti Money Laundering best practice regulations introduced by MP's...

Wouldn't a better idea be to try the house you are buying before you buy? Indeed, we've been doing that for 7 years. http://www.ewemove.com/rent-now-buy-later/

Need need to 'campaign' - simply refer the matter to Trading Standards. Agents that comply with the regulations are equally on board with this groups concerns
