This newly established company is based on the premise that when donors move, they often fail to notify charities they support, resulting in lost contact for the charity and ultimately, lost donations.
Home moving also sees a large amount of money being spent in a short period of time, which at the moment, charities do not tap into. Move for Good finds donors an estate agency that will sell their home and passes the donor’s details to the agency.
The estate agent gives the donor a 10% reduction on their fees and also gives 10% of their fees to Move for Good to donate to the donor’s chosen charity, once Move for Good has deducted a £60 administrative fee.
The aim is to have at least one estate agency in every town signed up to the scheme. The concept could then be rolled out to cover other areas of the property-related market, such as conveyancing and removals.
Currently, Move for Good has agreements in place with 500 estate agents including with TEAM, an established network of linked estate agents, which together represent the 2nd largest group of associated estate agents in the UK. Move for Good has begun implementing the scheme with a couple of UK charities.
