Five entries submitted by Belfast-based Lisney have been shortlisted across three categories for the 2018 Belfast Telegraph Property Awards.

The company has been shortlisted in the prestigious Commercial Estate Agency of the Year category and three of its transactions have been shortlisted for Property Deal of the Year:

• Sale of Obel 68
• Acquisition of 40-46 Donegall Place
• Sale of Metro Building

Jonathan Haughey has also been shortlisted for the Young Agent of the Year category, which was won by Lisney’s Lynn Taylor in 2017.

Declan Flynn, Managing Director at Lisney in Belfast, said:

“The Belfast Telegraph Property Awards celebrate the best of the best of the property industry, both commercial and residential.

“Last year we were delighted for Lynn Taylor to be named Young Agent of the Year, and since then we have acted on a number of hugely significant deals.

“This has included the sale of Obel 68, which sold in excess of its £15m asking price to Belfast Harbour having only been on the market for just three months; the acquisition of 40-46 Donegall Place on behalf of Corum Asset Management marking the French company’s entrance to the Northern Ireland market; and the sale of Metro Building which sold well in excess of its £21m price tag.

“The sale of Metro Building to a Private Property Trust remains the largest deal of the year.

“I am also extremely happy to see Jonathan recognised in the Young Agent of the Year category. Jonathan joined our Property Management team as a graduate in 2013 and now manages a number of high profile commercial and residential assets throughout Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland and Great Britain.

“He has made, and continues to make, a huge contribution to Lisney’s ongoing success and in doing so is establishing a reputation as a key player in the market.”

The awards will take place on Friday 16^th November 2018 in Crowne Plaza Belfast.
