Outstanding Wellington real estate saleswoman Gillian Cross has won First National Group’s top salesperson award for the 14th time.
Congratulating the real estate agents who received national awards last night, First National Group general manager Colleen Milne says the winners are all hard-working individuals who constantly strive to do their best for both vendors and buyers.
“These agents have achieved their winning status by exemplifying the First National promise to put our customers first. They are a credit to the First National network,” Milne says.
“They have exceptional knowledge of their areas because they live there and their success in bringing vendors and buyers together is shown in repeat business and long-lasting relationships.”
Gillian Cross concentrates on the Wellington suburb of Churton Park for First National Guardian.
Gillian Quantrill from First National Rutherford in Howick, Auckland, has placed second for a consecutive year and Andrea Church, from First National Mark Stevenson in Blenheim, has been in the top six for four years in a row despite only being in real estate for seven years.
