Messenger Community News – Mortgage Choice Rising Star Award Sharon Gray

The highly competitive field of auctioneering has a new star… and the boys had better watch out!

Sharon Gray, one of the few practicing female auctioneers in the business, has had her talent and skill recognised, taking out the 2008 "Rising Star" Golden Gavel Award.

Sharon, of Jock Gilbert Real Estate, received the accolade at last month’s glittering awards night, hosted by the Society of Auctioneers and Appraisers (SA) Inc. at the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra’s Grainger studio.

While Sharon has a decade of experience in the real estate industry, she’s only taken on the role of auctioneer in recent years, and now there’s no doubt her star is on the rise.

Sharon says she’s honoured to receive the award, particularly as the standard of competition was so high, and she encourages all practicing auctioneers to take up the challenge and enter in next year’s event.
