Matt Horne from Elders Real Estate has been recognised as a Masters Club Agent for the third consecutive year, and has also been named number one agent for settled sales nationally.
Both were awarded at the Victoria and Tasmania Annual Awards, held Saturday night at Melbourne’s ‘Elwood Bathers’.
Being inducted into the Masters Club is the highest honour an Elders agent can achieve, with only 21 individuals qualifying for this status nationally.
Masters Club Agents are selected as the top ten per cent of the prestigious Elite Agent group within the Elders network.
This esteemed club recognises those agents who are simply outstanding in their field, providing clients with gold standard service and transacting a huge number of sales in the given year.
Mr Horne was honoured for having ‘‘unrivalled knowledge of his region, coupled with an outstanding reputation for his work ethic, product knowledge and sales capabilities’’.
In an extraordinary year for Mr Horne, he also achieved number one agent for settled sales in Victoria/Tasmania and nationally.
He was also number two for rural sales, and number three nationally.
When asked what drives him, Mr Horne said ‘‘being able to assist clients achieve maximum results is the best reward I could ask for’’.
‘‘The recognition from Elders to be awarded as a Master is icing on the cake,’’ he said.
‘‘I am honoured to be one of a group of amazing Elders agents nationally in this category.’’
Elders general manager real estate Tom Russo said Masters Club status is difficult to achieve.
‘‘We are pleased to award Matt Horne as one of our esteemed Masters for 2022, and for the third year in a row,’’ he said.
‘‘In order to achieve Masters Club status, agents have demonstrated outstanding client service, relentless commitment to training and innovation, and a desire to consistently be the best in their respective local area.’’
