About the awards

Recognising the top innovators in Australia’s real estate sector

In an era of rapid change driven by the democratisation of technology, the real estate industry is evolving at a remarkable pace. Success is no longer solely defined by the traditional elements that once dominated the market; innovation has become the cornerstone of excellence.

The REB Innovation Awards celebrate the trailblazers—individuals and organisations—leading this transformation. From top-performing agents to pioneering technology providers, this prestigious awards programme recognises the innovators shaping the future of real estate.

Finalists across all categories will be selected for their exceptional performance and their clear demonstration of how innovative practices or transformative technologies have driven their success. Winners will exemplify a pioneering mindset, using forward-thinking approaches to achieve outstanding results.
