The awards, which are one of the largest real estate awards in Australia, recognise those agents and agencies that have ranked the highest based on customer reviews and feedback over 2016.

“It’s a tremendous privilege to be awarded agent of the year,” said Nicholas. “Our vast buyer database often allows us to produce quality results even before a home is placed on the open market.

“Being awarded agent of the year recognises the hard work and enthusiasm my team and I endeavour to deliver.”

The RateMyAgent Agent of the Year Awards compare more than 26,000 agents and agencies across the country.  They highlight the leading real estate agents and agencies in each suburb, city and state across Australia, and on a national level.  

“The RateMyAgent awards are the only ones which use verified customer reviews and feedback, so they’re an honest gauge of the customer service an agent has provided,” said RateMyAgent CEO and co-founder Mark Armstrong. “These awards are the only industry awards to put sellers needs first, using customer reviews as a leading indicator of an agent’s success over 2016.”

In their third year, the awards are the only major customer choice awards for the real estate industry in Australia.  Rather than being judged by industry peers, the awards are calculated based on the reviews provided on the RateMyAgent website.
