At Brickston Estate, our mission is to help you find your ideal property with confidence. We connect buyers, sellers, landlords, tenants, and property professionals through a trusted marketplace where properties can be advertised securely and transparently.

Before allowing estate agents, developers, or property professionals to advertise on our platform, we carry out verification checks to help maintain the integrity of our marketplace.

We are committed to creating a safe environment for everyone using Brickston Estate.

Staying Safe Online

While most property professionals are genuine and trustworthy, fraudsters sometimes attempt to impersonate legitimate businesses or create fake property listings.

Following a few simple precautions can help protect you.

Our Safety Tips

• Always communicate through the official contact details provided in the property listing.
• Verify the identity of the agent or property owner before making any commitments.
• Never transfer money without first viewing the property or completing appropriate legal checks.
• Be cautious of properties offered at prices that seem unusually low.
• Avoid clicking on suspicious links or downloading unexpected attachments.
• Use strong, unique passwords for your online accounts.

• Your account password
• Online banking credentials
• Credit or debit card PIN numbers
• One-time verification codes (OTP)
