The Association of Estate Agents in Nigeria (AEAN) is an affiliate of the Nigeria institution of estate surveyors and Valuers (NIESV). Over the years, Estate Surveyors and Valuers have noticed the bastardization of an aspect of our profession particularly estate agency which for want of a better word has been turned into an all comers affair. As a matter of fact the poor public perception and image of the Estate Agent and in effect the profession of Estate Surveying and Valuation, is as a result of the activities and incursion of non professionals into the practice of Estate Agency. The institution in a bid to reverse this trend has set up the Association of Estate Agents in Nigeria.
