Agents urged to support Front Door Friday campaign
Sales progression specialist, ASAP, is asking agents to donate to Crisis for completions made on a Friday (or any other day) to support homelessness.
With Fridays being the busiest day of the week for property sale completions, ASAP is inviting agents, vendors and sellers to make a small donation to support its charity of the year.
The sales progression specialist is supporting Crisis, a charity dedicated to combatting homelessness and poor housing conditions, to ensure that everyone has a safe place to call home, and is aiming to raise £10,000.
Although called The Front Door Friday campaign, agents and their clients are encouraged to donate £1 or more for every transaction they are involved in on any day of the week and further support the cause through in-branch and digital promotion, as well as other fundraising activities.
When one door closes, another opens
Richard Megson, MD at ASAP, commented: “As a company that helps thousands of home movers complete their sale, it makes sense for us to try to support those who do not have that basic necessity of a guaranteed roof over their head.
“Whether you’re an estate agent, solicitor, mortgage broker buyer or seller, making a donation on the completion of a purchase could make a real difference.”
ASAP has previously supported The Samaritans, raising over £29,000 for the charity over three years. In addition to Front Door Friday, ASAP is participating in the Women in Estate Agency Lake Distict Ultra challenge, with five team members undertaking the 1st Quarter Challenge on 7th June.
Jamie Taylor, Amelia Wright, Liberty Sykes, Natasha Delaney and Sibh Megson will be walking 29km to raise money for Breast Cancer Now, in memory of WiEA committee member, Sarah Edmundson.
