Mundys homes in on major property award

Mundys estate agency in Lincoln has won a prestigious Daily Mail UK Property Award for the 'Best Estate Agency in Lincolnshire' for the second year running.

Launched in 2005, the Daily Mail UK Property Awards are part of the International Property Awards, the world's most prestigious competition dedicated to finding the best real estate professionals across the globe.

There are 21 categories: up to two of the entries in each category are awarded four stars whilst a select few are given the ultimate five-star award.

In 2008 Mundys was one of just 12 estate agencies in the UK to be awarded the highest possible accolade.

Mundys will attend a high-profile gala dinner at the Marriott Hotel in London's Grosvenor Square on Friday October 16th where they will find out if they have won a four or five star award.

Senior Partner Philip Barnatt said of winning the award: "The fact that Mundys has won one of these coveted awards is proof that we are not only able to compete at this level but also triumph within the highly competitive property market.

"Our team is passionately committed to providing the best possible service to our clients at every stage of buying or selling a home.

"We invest in our staff as we believe the more experienced and qualified our people are, the better the standard of service they offer and we receive hundreds of positive client testimonials every year."

Entries were judged by a panel of professionals whose collective knowledge of the property industry is second to none and unsurpassed by any other property awards.

This year's judges included Eric Pickles MP, chairman of the Conservative Party; Ben Wood, industry head property markets of Google UK; Peter Bolton King, group chief executive of the National Federation of Property Professionals; Imtiaz Farookhi, chief executive of the National House Building Council; Christopher Hall, president elect of FIABCI; Wilhelm Harnish, Master Builders of Australia (MBA); Thijs Stoffer, International Consortium of Real Estate Agents Association (ICREA); Helen Shield, editor-in-chief of International Homes Luxury Collection magazine; and Gillian Farr, head of design of Laura Ashley Home.

Later this year top-scoring winners from the UK Property Awards will compete against other winning companies from Asia Pacific, Europe and Africa, the Americas and Arabia to find the ultimate world's best in each category.
