imoti.net wins highly prestigious International Property Award

Рубрика: General news Източник: imoti.net The fact that imoti.net has earned one of these coveted awards is sure proof that the company can not only compete but also triumph within the highly competitive global property arena.

Now in their 13th year, the awards were presented by former BBC Royal Correspondent Jennie Bond at a glittering gala dinner in London’s Grosvenor Square. Approximately 400 property professionals representing 56 different countries around the globe gathered in eager anticipation of winning one or more of the 100 highly prestigious awards across 20 categories.

Buying a property is quite probably the most significant personal expense anyone is likely to make during their lifetime and, with competition fiercer than ever within the market, it’s increasingly difficult for the discerning purchaser to know where to start searching. Developers and estate agents use their award success to stand out in the crowded market place.

Selection is no simple task; it calls for a panel of highly respected judges whose collective knowledge of the industry is second to none. Therefore, the International Property Awards draws on the invaluable expertise of representatives from the National Association of Estate Agents; Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors; National Housebuilding Council; Association of Relocation professionals and the British Interior Design Association, to name but a few (see full list of judges below). The panel is chaired by Eric Pickles MP, British Shadow Secretary of State.

Stuart Shield, founder of the International Property Awards, concludes, “I’m delighted that the awards have grown to such a stature that they have attracted the attention and support of some of the world’s major newspapers – the Daily Mail, New York Times and Sydney Morning Herald – which helps to give the winners even more coverage. I’m also pleased that so many well-respected professional bodies have joined with their backing. We are now going on to crown the year with our event in Las Vegas on November 16th where the highest point scoring winners will be identified as the best in the world.”
