After a stellar year in which it set a record with an astounding $44.7 billion in annual sales, the Ray White Group has revealed its top-performing agent.

Andrew Jolliffe has been announced as the company's number one sales agent internationally for 2016–17.

Sydney-based Mr Jolliffe, who was also the number one international agent in 2015–16, heads up the group's hospitality and leisure arm in the Asia-Pacific.

Ray White Group director Dan White lauded Mr Jolliffe’s ability as a real estate agent.

"Andrew always put his clients in the best position to make the best decisions,” the director said.

“His attention to detail is flawless. He knows his market intimately and therefore he communicates opportunities frequently to his clients.”

Mr Jolliffe was humble in accepting the award.

"To receive an award such as this from Australia's oldest and largest real estate group is most rewarding,” the sales agent said.

“Clearly, however, I've been immeasurably benefited by the strength of the asset class within which I operate, as well as being surrounded by an organisation full of people who both believe in and embrace the concept of a meritocracy.

"When the culture of an organisation creates a platform where everyone pushes and pulls in the same direction, it can become quite intoxicating in terms of the availability of success for those involved."

Mr Jolliffe is a former ASX-listed company CEO and private equity fund manager.

Now in his eighth year with Ray White, Mr Jolliffe said that the level of “increased sophistication and therefore expectation” from his client base means a “greater depth of knowledge and service” is required.

"That being said, trust in both ability and advice is still the key differentiator we highlight as being the most important to us, as proxy for our valued clients and this view we hold transcends real estate, and applies to any professional service."

Mr Jolliffe has been responsible for a number of the industry's most valuable transactions nationally, including the sale of the Clovelly and Marlborough hotels and the sale of the Collaroy and Tennyson hotels.

The latter set the record price for a hotel at public auction in December 2016 for selling at over $37 million.
