LJ Hooker Nerang have taken out Real Estate Business Online’s (REB) Sales Office Of the Year – Regional awards for 2023. The event recognises Australia’s top performing real estate professionals and networks, including agents, property managers, innovators and leaders who have displayed excellence in the industry.

The star-studded 2023 black-tie ceremony was held at The Star in Sydney on May 4th where over 600 members of the real estate industry glammed up to cheer on their peers and network with their colleagues and industry leaders.
 
A total of 310 finalists battled it out for 20 individual, nine group, and five corporate awards at the ceremony. 
 
Australian stand-up comedian Vince Sorrenti assumed emcee duties and provided light and laughter throughout the evening.
For over a decade, the awards program has been known as the benchmark for excellence around Australia, and rewards those influencing the profession while propelling the industry forward.
 
This is the third time that the Gold Coast real estate office has won the national award, with the team taking home the trophy in 2018 and again in 2021. The win comes off the back of their REIQ win in November.
 
The LJ Hooker Solutions Gold Coast group were also named as finalist for Social and Community Service Program of the Year for the fifth time, and Jacinta McDonald was also finalist for Office Administrator of the Year for the second year in a row.
 
Shane Colquhoun, Principal of LJ Hooker Nerang and Director of LJ Hooker Solutions Gold Coast, said he was absolutely thrilled with the results.
 
“To be named as the winner of this award for the third time in five years is amazing. The Nerang team strive to deliver the highest standards to all of our clients across all departments,  and to have this recognised on a national level is a huge pat on the back.”
“Thank you to the REB for continuing to provide this industry with this and other events promoting our industry success stories and to the judges that contribute their own time to support what we all do. We are thrilled”
 
 
REB editor Grace Ormsby has praised all of this year’s winners, noting the tough competition field and outstanding calibre of all finalists.
 
“Congratulations to all of our award winners named tonight! Our 2023 award recipients join a select group of industry professionals who are operating at the top of the real estate game.”
