More about Fran
I completed my NQF4 in 2009, and was exempt from PDE 4. I was voted on to the Institute of Estate Agents Board in 2009, with a portfolio of Marketing and Sponsorship, and was later elected Chairman in 2011. I was also instrumental in setting up the new RNS Multi Listing Service, and still serve on the board of RNS, and I am still very involved in the quarterly meetings with all the agencies, actually leading the meetings. I have years of Real Estate experience as well as great people skills. I won the Agent's Agent Award in 2012 at the Greyvensteins Function, this award is given to the person that the agents in the field respect, like and generally go the extra mile for them and the profession, and is voted by the agents.

Buyers can withdraw under certain conditions, but doing so without meeting the terms may lead to penalties. It’s crucial for both buyers and sellers to review the document carefully before signing to avoid legal and financial complications.
