2023 REIT Awards for Excellence
THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY CELEBRATES THE 2023 REAL ESTATE INSTITUTE OF TASMANIA’S AWARDS FOR EXCELLENCE
Tasmania’s real estate sector came together on Saturday night to celebrate its achievements and recognise outstanding performers for 2023 at the Awards for Excellence gala dinner held in Hobart.
“Our annual Awards for Excellence are a chance to reflect on the contribution the real estate sector makes to the Tasmania and the professionalism and dedication of all the businesses and individuals working in our Industry,” said REIT President, Michael Walsh.
“This year we celebrated 22 award categories and over 220 people attended the Awards ceremony. It shows what a vibrant and successful real estate sector we have in the Tasmania, with the state showing continued buoyancy in the property market.
“The Institute believes the continued success and growth of the Awards for Excellence is evidence of the professionalism in which the Tasmanian property representatives conduct their daily business.
“I would like to commend all the finalists. This year the Awards acknowledged a record 104 finalists. It was an exceptionally strong and tight field and many of the categories were separated by the smallest of margins.” “We were also pleased to note the increased support shown for “team” award categories which is clearly a sign of recognition by industry leaders of the importance of this growing culture within real estate to achieve excellence in customer experience for all consumers of real estate in Tasmania.
“It is particularly exciting for our 2023 winners, as they will now go on to represent Tasmania at the 2024 Real Estate Institute of Australia National Awards for Excellence. This event will be the most significant event of the 2024 real estate calendar year, with the REIA celebrating 100 Years of Excellence. The event will be hosted by the REIT here in Hobart on 16 May 2024.”
