The finalists for the 2021 REIA National Awards for Excellence have been announced, with this year’s event set to take place in Darwin in June.

As reported by Elite Agent last month, realestate.com.au will be the presenting partner for this year’s REIA National Awards as part of a new sponsorship agreement.

REIA President Adrian Kelly said the REIA National Awards for Excellence 2021 will recognise the best performers in Australian real estate.

The finalists for the Residential Salesperson of the Year are: Adam Hayes from the NT’s Call2View Real Estate; Maria Selleck, from Maria Selleck Properties, ACT; Richard Sims, from Tasmania’s Sims for Property; and Michelle Stephens, from O’Brien Real Estate Carrum Downs, in Victoria.

Mr Kelly said the awards would also highlight how State & Territory Institute membership can help agents and agencies stand out in the market.

“In total, there are 20 awards across three streams: Residential, Commercial and Excellence in the Industry,” Mr Kelly said.

“It’s pleasing to note from our 83 finalists there has been an increase in female candidates in the different categories from previous years, in particular in the category of Residential Salesperson of the Year, which is always hotly contested.”

“Our team is looking forward to celebrating the real estate industry’s success and outstanding achievements as the presenting partner for the REIA National Awards for Excellence 2021,” REA Group CEO Owen Wilson said.

The REIA National Awards for Excellence 2021 covers all aspects of the real estate sector, including residential and commercial agencies, residential and commercial sales, residential and commercial property management, business brokers, buyer’s agents, community service, innovation and communications.

Mr Kelly said the REIA National Awards for Excellence 2021 would be hosted by the Real Estate Institute of the Northern Territory in Darwin on June 10.

“The awards will be a night to remember as the Real Estate Institute of the Northern Territory (REINT) showcases the uniqueness of the Top End, the property sector, the open-aired event and menu inspired by Tastes of the Territory.

The awards will take place at Darwin’s Mindil Resort & Casino, in Darwin on June 10.
