A real estate agent who admitted disgraceful conduct has been celebrated by the company that kept her on as a “true champion”.

Corinna Mansell was banned from the industry for three months and fined $2500 for selling a rental property to a Waikato pensioner without disclosing it was a leaky home. She quit as the general manager of RE/MAX but was kept on as the manager of their Flatbush office, reports Stuff.

Then at their annual awards ceremony Mansell was awarded the inaugural CEO’s Cup with chief executive Don Ha describing her as a “brand ambassador” and a “true champion”.

He told Stuff “everyone deserves a second chance” and the real estate company “understands people” rather than “crucifying” them.

Asked for comment, Mansell said “I have been advised, as it is company policy, not to comment. Don has spoken to you and given you his comment.”
