Fair Trading disqualifies agents

By Staff Reporter 09 March 2011 | 7 minute read

Matthew Sullivan

Two central coast real estate agents have had their licenses revoked by NSW Fair Trading.

Kevin Barnes and Nicole Mars were disqualified from practising as estate agents for 10 and six years respectively, after the duo were found to have obtained $500,000 profit in a property sale.

 
 

Fair Trading took action against the pair after a compliant came through from Housing NSW concerning the sale of a property at 1-3 Walmsley Road, Ourimbah.

Fair Trading deputy commissioner Steve Griffin said Fair Trading would continue to take decisive action when real estate agents and businesses acted inappropriately in putting their own interests before that of their clients.
