Is it possible to start a Real Estate Agency as a sole proprietor?

If the firm is a sole proprietorship, the proprietor must complete the necessary application forms, giving particulars of the business, and pay the prescribed fees.

Only one certificate is issued in respect of sole traders as stated in the Estate Agency Affairs Act of 1976.

The sole proprietorship is a simple, informal structure that is inexpensive to form. Sole proprietors can conduct business under their own name. If you wish to operate under a trade name, then you’ll have to “register” that name. Contact Cipro for details.
