Are you the best buyer’s agent in town? Prove it with the inaugural Australian Buyers Agent Awards. Submissions close on Thursday, 26 February 2026.

With more and more buyer’s agents entering the Australian property market scene each year, Real Estate Business and Smart Property Investment have launched the first-ever Australian Buyers Agent Awards (ABAA), shining a spotlight on the talent, dedication, and innovation that often go unnoticed.

Across 26 categories, including 16 individual and 10 group categories, the awards recognise those who excel in sourcing, assessing and securing properties, as well as in negotiating and delivering outstanding results for clients.

 
 

More than an awards program, they showcase the people and offices raising the bar in expertise and service, shaping the future of property buying, with winners gaining REB coverage and shareable assets to boost their profile.

Companies will be recognised in group categories, including Buyers Agency of the Year (PPOR, Residential Investment, Commercial), Start Up Buyers Agency of the Year and Diversified Buyers Agency of the Year.

Similarly, individual categories will reward the Buyers Agent of the Year – Residential PPOR/Commercial, Luxury and Prestige Buyers Agent of the Year, and Rising Star of the Year.

Leadership and excellence will also be celebrated with three special awards, including Director/Executive of the Year, Professional Referral Network of the Year and Social Impact Community Contribution Award.

Designed to champion and elevate the buyers’ agency profession, the awards highlight those setting new benchmarks in client service, professionalism and innovation, reflecting Momentum Media and its partners’ commitment to celebrating excellence across every corner of real estate.

The awards program will culminate in a black-tie gala ceremony on Thursday, 23 April 2026, at Doltone House, Hyde Park in Sydney.

As submissions draw to a close, this is your last chance to enter the categories or nominate a peer.

How to submit

You will be asked to answer four simple questions by recording yourself (either via an audio recording or by submitting a video) to our secure awards portal for the award categories you want to be considered for. This video can be done on your phone – no need for green screens or top-quality cameras!

All entrants will be asked to answer four questions; the questions will vary depending on the category selected for the submission.

All submissions are electronic and must be received through our secure awards platform by 5:30pm AEDT on Thursday, 26 February 2026.

The Australian Buyers Agent Awards program, in conjunction with event stakeholders Real Estate Business and Momentum Media, has developed a new methodology to form the backbone for assessing, analysing and benchmarking Australia’s leading property management professionals and offices.
