We’re thrilled to announce that The Agency has been honored with a 2026 Inman Golden I Club Award for Best Sales & Marketing Campaign, recognized for our team’s work on the David Lynch Compound, which sold in March 2026.
The Golden I Club is Inman’s highest honor in luxury real estate, recognizing the agents, teams, brokerages, and standout transactions that define the top tier of the industry.
This win for the David Lynch Compound — a multi-residence Hollywood Hills property where the auteur lived and worked for more than three decades— highlights the strength and impact of our multi-faceted campaign, one comprised of sophisticated marketing as well as strategic press, all executed thoughtfully by our incredible in-house team.
The accolades don’t end there. The Agency was also named a 2026 finalist for Top Luxury Brokerage (an award we won in 2022), and The Umansky Team was named a finalist for Top Luxury Team— congrats to Mauricio, Farrah Brittany, Alexia Umansky, and Madison Buffardi!
“I am so incredibly proud of our team,” said Rainy Austin, President of The Agency. “This win, and these nominations, reflect the impact of the daily collaboration that takes place between our agents and our in-house PR and Marketing teams. To be recognized by Inman, one of the industry’s top publications, is a moment we can all celebrate. Such amazing accomplishments, team — well done!”
Congratulations again to our Inman Golden I Club finalists and to everyone who contributed their talent and expertise to the winning campaign.
