Once the Ombudsman has concluded their investigation you may forward your complaint to the NFoPP Regulation Department which is the regulatory function of the ARLA Propertymark.

You will need to submit your complaint to the NFoPP Regulation Department within six months of the Ombudsman’s final review. You should include a copy of the Ombudsman’s review and a copy of your signed acceptance /rejection letter and any other supporting documentation which you feel will assist the assessment of your complaint.
