What are the REINZ Awards for Excellence?


The Real Estate Institute of New Zealand (REINZ) Awards for Excellence recognise outstanding achievement across NZ's real estate industry, celebrating high-performing people, teams, offices and agencies.

Entries are independently judged, with verification and auditing processes supporting the integrity of the awards. Depending on the category, assessment may consider measurable performance, sales results, key performance indicators, written submissions and supporting evidence.

Being named a finalist or winner recognises outstanding expertise, performance and commitment in New Zealand real estate.





Why our REINZ recognition matters to you


Awards are worth celebrating, but what matters most is what sits behind them.

For our clients, Property Brokers' success at the REINZ Awards reflects the quality and breadth of the people working on their behalf. From award-winning residential and rural salespeople to property managers, support professionals and high-performing local offices, our expertise extends across the property journey. And because we operate as one True Team, that expertise isn't limited to one person or one office.

Our people collaborate, share knowledge and connect buyers across our network, giving every client the strength of the wider Property Brokers team.

For years, our dedication to exceptional service has been recognized through the prestigious REINZ (Real Estate Institute of New Zealand) Awards – a testament to our unwavering commitment to our clients.
