Dundalk estate agent wins prestigious national award

Dundalk estate agent Paul Clarke of DNG Duffy has won a national award at the DNG National Awards ceremony.

Clarke was commended in the DNG Going Above and Beyond Award 2026 category at The Curragh Racecourse in County Kildare on Thursday, 15th October.

Paul’s nominee Keith Duffy, Managing Director, DNG Duffy, said: “We’re delighted to see Paul receive a Highly Commended award in the DNG Going Above and Beyond category.

“As we highlighted in his nomination, Paul consistently goes well beyond what is expected of him, whether that means accommodating clients outside normal hours, helping to resolve practical issues around a sale or supporting colleagues within the office.

“One example that really stood out was the effort he made to help an overseas client complete a sale within a very tight timeframe, working across time zones and keeping the transaction moving throughout. Paul’s commitment, professionalism and willingness to do whatever is needed for clients make this recognition very well deserved.”

The DNG National Awards bring together more than 150 delegates representing 82 DNG offices from across Ireland.

The DNG National Awards serve as a platform to showcase the achievements of individuals and offices who have consistently demonstrated excellence in their respective roles.

Speaking at the awards, Niamh Comber, Head of DNG Nationwide said: “We are delighted to continue DNG’s long-standing association with The Curragh as title sponsor of its October race day.

“With more than 80 DNG offices across Ireland, being part of the communities we serve is greatly important to us.

“The Curragh is a fantastic venue with ease of access from across Ireland and provides the perfect setting to bring our network together. We enjoyed another great day of racing and celebrating with our colleagues, clients and guests.”
