Industry’s best recognised at the 2020 REIWA Awards for Excellence

For the first time in REIWA’s 102-year history, the 2020 Awards for Excellence were streamed to hundreds of people, who virtually celebrated and recognised the unparalleled work that is done within Western Australian real estate.  

REIWA CEO Neville Pozzi said during a difficult and evolutionary year within the industry, the awards are more important than ever to showcase the fantastic work that is achieved.  

Awards for Excellence

“The Awards for Excellence are the highest accolade that can bestowed by the Institute and are a unique opportunity to acknowledge those WA real estate professionals who demonstrate best practice and have a positive impact on clients, the industry and community at large,” Mr Pozzi said 

“On behalf of the Institute, I’d like to congratulate the 2020 nominees and winners on their achievements and the outstanding value they continue to provide the WA community in the face of what remains a challenging economy,” Mr Pozzi said.  

Hall of fame

“In addition, I would like to congratulate Peter Clements from Mint Real Estate who was inducted into REIWA’s Hall of Fame this year, for winning the Residential Salesperson of the Year for three consecutive years from 2017 – 2019.” 

The 2020 winners will represent WA in the Real Estate Institute of Australia’s National Awards for Excellence, held next year.
