REA Group has announced the finalists for this yearโs Annual REA Excellence Awards (AREAs), to be held in Melbourne on Thursday, 14 November, 2019.
The AREAs honour the most innovative, community-minded and highest-achieving individuals and businesses in the property industry โ including residential, commercial and project developers โ and the media industry.
A total of 21 awards will be presented across three categories of Innovation, Service and Marketing Excellence, and Community.
After the successful introduction of individual best in class awards last year, individuals will again be recognised in the Gold AREAs categories of Agent of the Year, Property Manager of the Year, and Most Influential Woman in Property.
REA Group Chief Audience and Marketing Officer Melina Cruickshank said it was the fourth year running that the AREAs would publicly celebrate the achievements of its customers.
โREA wants to recognise people in our industry from all over the country and itโs fantastic to see a number of customers have been announced as a finalist in more than one category,” Ms Cruickshank said.
“This is a real testament to the exceptional work theyโve been doing throughout the year.โ
