Sales are softening, and agencies across Australia are doubling down on their rent roll. REB has officially revealed its Stellar Agencies 2026, ranking the top 10 property management businesses by growth, not size.
On this episode of The Property Management Excellence (PMX) Podcast, host Alex Whitlock is joined by REB editor Liam Garman to reveal the Stellar Agencies 2026: REB’s top 10 property management businesses with the greatest growth in properties under management.
With sales softening, more agencies are doubling down on property management and recent research has indicated that two-in-three agencies are focusing on property management for their next phase of growth. The Stellar Agencies show who is winning that race.
The hosts count down all 10, revealing each business’s growth in properties under management, whether it grew organically or through acquisition, and which software it runs on. The mix shows there is no one-size-fits-all approach, and that fast growth can come from very different strategies.
Whitlock and Garman also explain why scaling too fast can sink the economics, why culture and client service matter more than software, and what to expect from the top 10 in the months ahead, with a representative from each business joining the podcast to unpack how they did it.
