The Estate Agents Registration Board (EARB) successfully conducted an Induction and Award Ceremony on 25th April at Kenya Bankers Sacco, marking the official admission of 46 new members into the profession as Registered Estate Agents.
The ceremony forms part of the Board’s statutory mandate to regulate and oversee the practice of estate agency in Kenya, ensuring that only qualified and duly registered individuals are licensed to operate. The induction signifies a key milestone in the professional journey of the new registrants, formally recognizing them as compliant practitioners within the sector.
The event was attended by the EARB Board Chairperson, who presided over the official presentation of registration certificates to the new members, formally welcoming them to the profession. Also present were Board Members who facilitated key knowledge sessions, including Mr. Daniel Kamunda, who presented on legal issues encountered by estate agents; Mr. Cornelius Kimuyu, who spoke on ethics in real estate; and Mr. Ayub Naburi, who addressed disciplinary procedures and processes. The Board Registrar, Ms. Hellen Abuya, was also in attendance.
Through these presentations, the Board reaffirmed its commitment to promoting professionalism, ethical conduct, and adherence to the legal and regulatory framework governing the real estate sector.
The Board congratulates the newly registered Estate Agents and calls upon them to uphold the highest standards of integrity, professionalism, and compliance with the law as they undertake their duties.
EARB further urges all aspiring estate agents to initiate the registration process and regularize their practice. Operating as an estate agent without being duly registered is illegal and constitutes a violation of the law. The Board remains committed to facilitating registration while enforcing compliance to safeguard public interest and enhance trust in the real estate industry.
