Shirley Johnston obtained 13 commission payments from the council for work she did not do.
Nearly 150 thousand dollars of these payments were transferred to a bank account controlled by her and husband Stephen Gubb.
She was not the real estate agent for those property sales in the iZone business park.
She will be sentenced in September.
Stephen Gubb is serving a two year nine month sentence for defrauding the council of over a million dollars.
