2010 REIV Awards announced
The REIV Awards for Excellence were announced at tonight’s 17th annual real estate gala event in
front of over 1,000 real estate professionals and dignitaries at the Crown Palladium Ballroom.
REIV President John Grabyn said that the REIV Awards for Excellence recognise and reward those
Members of the Institute who promote excellence in service and ethics and who achieve outstanding
results. This year saw a record number of entries across all 26 award categories, which is testament
to the high regard in which these awards are held.
Awards are handed out for best marketing campaigns as well as for individual professionals across all
occupational categories; and agency awards are highly sought after. The awards are judged by an
independent panel from entries submitted by the REIV’s more than 6,000 Members.
