Fierce competition
It was an incredible competition, but there could only be one winner.
“Oliver Burton was polished, professional and well prepared,” says REINSW President and NAC judge, Leanne Pilkington. “The event was a great success.”
Burton, a graduate of the National Institute of Dramatic Art, took out the Inner West heat to gain entry into the final.
“I love being in front of a crowd, keeping people’s attention and putting on a great show,” he said after winning. “Being a freelance performer is a difficult gig and I was looking for a profession that makes use of my skills and training.
“I am thrilled by how welcoming the [real estate] industry has been and am grateful for the advice I have received during the competition.
“I am looking forward to beginning my auctioneering career and am thankful to REINSW for creating an opportunity to introduce me to the industry.”
