LEADING local agency PhilipWebb Real Estate has taken out the Innovation Excellence of the Year award at the 10th annual Australasian Real Estate Results Awards (ARERAs), the independent real estate industry’s most prestigious accolades held in Sydney earlier this month.
Hosted by peak industry coaching and training body Real Estate Results Network (RERN), this year’s ARERAs were more hotly contested than ever, with a record number of nominations from across Australia and New Zealand received for the distinction of being named among the industry’s most outstanding operators.
The industry’s finest were crowned at a glittering ‘Phantom of the Opera’ themed gala event on Monday, February 1 coinciding with Kickstart – RERN’s biggest annual event, taking place over two days at Sydney Hilton Hotel.
A total of 28 agencies were nominated as finalists in 15 agency awards, alongside contenders for 21 individual awards, across a total of 36 categories including Agency of the Year, Agent of the Year, Marketing Campaign of the Year, and Rising Star of the Year, among others.
RERN founder Michael Sheargold congratulated PhilipWebb Real Estate on their achievement, noting the standard of quality among this year’s finalists was higher than ever.
“Our winners were selected for their passion and outstanding contribution to their individual agencies, as well as to the industry as a whole, and I look forward to witnessing each of them achieve even greater heights as they continue to inspire their peers throughout the region in the coming year,” said Mr Sheargold.
“The ARERAs are very highly regarded within the industry as peer-nominated awards, and we invite the community to join us in celebrating the incredible achievement of our finalists and winners in 2016.”
The ARERAs presentation formed a program highlight of Kickstart, a members-only event providing an opportunity for principals, agents and managers to network, share and learn from industry experts.
RERN is Australasia's leading network of independent agencies, with more than 1200 principals and agents who are members throughout Australia and New Zealand.
The Network offers expert support and services to help agencies and their teams reach their full potential and has assisted hundreds of principals in improving their real estate business model and recipes for success.
