The Real Estate Institute of New South Wales (REINSW) has announced the  finalists for its annual Awards for Excellence. 

Now in its 27th year, the prestigious Awards for Excellence is the most respected  competition within the real estate profession, acknowledging exceptional  performances across the industry.  

The Awards for Excellence program offers much-deserved recognition for the  unwavering commitment and tireless efforts exhibited by agents and their  valuable contributions to their communities.  

“While it is crucial to recognise outstanding work, all the finalists should be  immensely proud,” says REINSW President Barry Johnston. “Celebrating their  exceptional contributions helps us cultivate talent, foster innovation, and expand  the realm of possibilities.” 

The Awards for Excellence offers 22 categories covering both agencies and  individuals.  

“With the industry’s continuous evolution, new specialties and practices emerge,”  says Mr Johnston. “As the leading real estate awards program in NSW, we are  committed to continually evaluating and improving our categories and processes  year on year.” 

“Being recognised as a finalist in the Awards for Excellence is a prestigious  honour.”  

“Finalists should proudly share their achievements, as it validates their hard work  and demonstrates the exceptional quality of their contributions.” 

The Awards for Excellence Gala Dinner is scheduled to take place Thursday, 12  September 2024 at The Star Entertainment Centre in Sydney. Details about ticket  purchases will be released in the coming weeks, so keep an eye out for further  announcements.
