Homely launches The Homely Awards, recognising the gold standard in Australian real estate
Homely.com.au have announced the launch of its inaugural national awards programme, The Homely Awards, to recognise excellence in the Australian real estate industry.
The Homely Awards, dubbed “the gold standard” of award recognition due to its meticulous and data-driven methodology, honours Australia’s best-performing agents, property managers, and offices across a range of highly relevant categories.
“Recognising the extraordinary dedication and excellence of our agents, property managers, and offices is something we have always spoken about at Homely,” said Adam Spencer, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Homely. “These professionals consistently go above and beyond, delivering remarkable results and adding immense value to their vendors, communities, and colleagues. To be able to formally celebrate their achievements underscores our commitment to fostering a culture of excellence within the industry, and is something we are all thrilled to be a part of.”
The Significance of Winning a Homely Award
As one of Australia’s most visited real estate portals, Homely is trusted and supported by the industry. Winning a Homely Award signifies prestigious recognition for outstanding achievement and unwavering commitment to excellence from a key player in the Australian real estate market. Homely ensures award winners gain significant exposure through its strong industry connections and vast audience of property seekers and reviewers.
Winners can showcase their Homely Awards to vendors and landlords through national marketing channels, gain access to exclusive media opportunities, custom digital and print assets, and enjoy free Homely Premier Profiles for 12 months, boosting their brand visibility nationally.
The Metrics That Matter
The Homely Awards recognise key areas that have the biggest impact on the property industry, not only including residential and rural sales but also local area expertise, vendor and property owner trust, property management success, and property marketing innovation.
“When it comes to the best salesperson or the most sales, those are honours that should be recognised and rewarded. However, there are agents and property managers who deliver more beyond numbers,” said David Webb, Head of Industry Revenue and Partnerships. “We have thousands of hardworking and incredibly committed professionals listing properties on Homely. Our deep data analytics help us identify those who clearly rise to the top,” Webb added.
Letting the Numbers Tell the Story
The Homely Awards are uniquely fair and objective. There is no judging panel – winners are selected based on comprehensive listing and engagement data alone, ensuring a transparent and unbiased process. This data-driven methodology guarantees that every accolade is truly deserved, maintaining the integrity and prestige of the awards.
“We have data that shows exactly how trusted they are, how hard they work for their clients, and how engaged they are with their local communities. The Homely Awards reward excellence across the board, as demonstrated with the vendors and property owners in mind,” Webb said.
Awards Categories
The Homely Awards feature a variety of categories at both national and state levels, including Best Residential Sales Agent in Australia, Best Property Manager, Local Area Expert, Best Property Marketing Campaign, and more. For a full list of categories, visit homely.com.au/awards.
