Property agents triumph in national awards

This is no mean feat for an independent firm of chartered surveyors and commercial property consultants which was only established five years ago. More than 60 agents in the region were entered for the award.

The magazine also named ehB’s Victoria Mawer as the county’s ‘Deal Maker of the Year’ – the second time she has won the award. The ‘deal maker’ prize has only run for three years and the firm has won it on all three occasions - with Victoria lifting the trophy this year and in 2011, and director Simon Hain picking up last year’s award.

Mr Hain said: “We have remained very busy over the last four years despite the economic situation, mainly because we handle all kinds of property – large and small – and don’t restrict ourselves to just the large lucrative deals, coupled with great client care and service. There is a general improvement in the market.”
