REIQ Press Release

Best of Qld real estate recognised

Monday, 15 February 2010

Queensland's real estate profession put the uncertainties of 2009 behind them on Friday night, gathering in Brisbane to recognise their very best property practitioners.

About 400 people attended the Real Estate Institute of Queensland's (REIQ) 2010 Awards for Excellence at the Sofitel Hotel to applaud the finalists and winners in each of the awards' 15 categories.

REIQ Board Chair Pamela Bennett said each of the award contenders should be congratulated for choosing to focus on their positive achievements during the economic difficulties of the past year.

"The Queensland real estate market has certainly experienced marked highs and lows over the past few years, with 2009 a particularly trying time for many of our members," Mrs Bennett said.

"Thankfully, this year heralds more stable economic conditions, which augurs well for all of our members.

"These annual awards showcase the very best of our profession and recognise those who, together with the REIQ, believe that best practice, commitment and integrity are the keys to a successful and fulfilling real estate career."

Agent and agency winners will automatically progress into the 2010 National Awards for Excellence held in Adelaide in March.
