New mobile app for verifying estate agent licences

SINGAPORE: The Council for Estate Agencies (CEA) has launched a mobile version of its online Public Register of Estate Agents and Salespersons.

Called "CEA@SG", the new mobile application is CEA’s first app for devices running on iOS and Android platforms.

It features the same search functions as those offered on the Public Register on CEA’s website (www.cea.gov.sg).

With the app, members of the public can now access the Public Register on the go to verify the licensing details of estate agents and the registration information of salespersons.

The Public Register allows consumers to search the particulars of a salesperson, using the salesperson’s name, registration number or mobile number.

Similarly, consumers can search the names and licence numbers of estate agents.

The app, which was launched on Wednesday, is part of CEA’s efforts to make resources easily accessible to consumers so that they may make more informed decisions.

It can be downloaded for free at the Apple App Store and Google Play.
