THE results of the UK stage of the International Property Awards 2015-2016 have been announced and McCartneys is justifiably proud to be among the winners.

McCartneys competed against a number of the region's most accomplished real estate agents to receive this recognition. The level of award or awards it has won (either highly commended or five-star) will be revealed when the official announcements are made at a gala presentation dinner at the London Marriott Hotel Grosvenor Square in Mayfair on the evening of October 9.

The company may even go on to represent the United Kingdom in the final stage of the competition later this year. If it has attained the highest score in the real estate agent category, McCartneys will compete against other winning companies from Asia Pacific, Africa, Canada, the USA, Central and South America, the Caribbean, Arabia and Europe for the coveted crown of World's Best Real Estate Agent.

The award is a major achievement for McCartneys as entrants are judged against a strict set of criteria. Judging was undertaken by a panel of over 70 experts from all over the world and chaired by two active members of the House of Lords: Lord Caithness and Lord Best.

Stuart Shield, president of the International Property Awards, commented, "I'm delighted that the UK's real estate agents, property consultants and lettings agencies have demonstrated such an extensive range of exemplary services, They have also embraced the latest in new technology and managed to achieve the extremely high levels of customer support that is vital to succeed in this competition."

Debbie Anderson property chairman said "We are delighted to have been recognised in the International Property Awards. Our success is testament to the dedicated team of property professionals throughout our branch network."
