Locally, the agency has received several industry accolades including Property Manager of the Year 1996 & 2003, Canberra Boutique Agency of the Year in 1999 & The Canberra Times Marketing Award 1999 and Agency of the Year in 2006. Over the past five years Stephen has also represented the ACT at the Australian Auctioneers Association awards, winning the award in 2000 and 2001.
