Entries for the annual REINSW Awards For Excellence open this week, with submissions for the 21 categories welcomed from Friday, 12 April.

Now in its 22nd year, the awards recognise real estate professionals and agencies in NSW who have set the benchmark for professional standards in the industry.

REINSW President Leanne Pilkington said the vast amount of talent in real estate deserved to be put in the spotlight.

“The awards continuously highlight the achievements of professionals that work across the industry," she said.

"We’re looking forward to receiving submissions and ultimately celebrate the best, bravest and brightest.”

Each criteria will be judged by a panel of three, which may include members of REINSW and other REIs who are currently or were previously practising in real estate, members from the REINSW Board and external specialists.

Finalists in the Auctioneer category will be scored via a live auction before a panel of qualified auctioneers as judges.

Last year’s Auctioneering winner, Clarence White, said the recognition had wide-reaching benefits.

“To be judged by my peers as the winner in a field stacked full of some of Australia’s top auctioneers has been very humbling," he said.

"Continuing self-improvement through training for the live auction competition is the ultimate goal and winning is a bonus.

"Having the honour of receiving the award three times assists me in my everyday business when speaking with prospective clients, as it suggests the pedigree of call the client can expect for my services.”

Entries must be submitted via reinswawards.com.au by 5pm, 24 May 2019. Finalists will be announced 5 July 2019. Winners will be announced on 19 September 2019 during a gala dinner at The Star.
