Real Estate Stars Shine Bright At The REINZ Awards For Excellence 2024

The 2024 REINZ Awards for Excellence awarded 46 prizes to real estate professionals from all sectors. The event  brought together outstanding real estate agencies and professionals from across the country to celebrate and  acknowledge achievements within the real estate industry.  

This year, a new award, the Sustainability Award, was introduced. This award recognises businesses that are  facilitating a more sustainable future and celebrates their efforts to make the world a better place for future  generations. Importantly, it showcases these achievements to encourage best practices, initiate dialogue, and  inspire others in the real estate profession.  

Jen Baird, Chief Executive at REINZ, says the event was incredibly uplifting after a tough year for the sector and it  was filled with unexpected moments and new winners.  

“Congratulations to all our finalists. Your commitment to excellence is inspiring. We have a record number of  entries this year, and our judges spent a lot of time going through the nominations - there were some tight wins  and very close numbers.”
