2014 REINSW Awards for Excellence
The real estate industry’s high achievers were recognised in early October at the 2014 REINSW Awards for Excellence. Property professionals from across NSW descended on Doltone House for the annual Gala Dinner to celebrate the finalists and winners.
Emceed by Andrew Daddo, who had guests in stitches from the moment he stepped on stage, the Gala Dinner was a huge success. Awards were given out across 21 categories.
REINSW President Malcolm Gunning said the Awards for Excellence saw unprecedented levels of interest this year following a revamp of the categories, entry process and judging criteria.
“The REINSW Awards for Excellence program has a rich history. The introduction of several new categories including Digital Marketing and Rising Star proved to be a great success without taking away from our more established categories,” Mr Gunning said.
“The Awards have a bright future. Our winners are the best in their field and this recognition is not only a vote of support from the industry body, it is used as a valuable tool by consumers who look to REINSW as a leader.”

Woodrow Weight Award winner
For outstanding service to REINSW and real estate agency practice
The prestigious Woodrow Weight Award for outstanding service to the Real Estate Institute of New South Wales and the profession has been awarded to auctionWORKS founder David Scholes.

The Woodrow Weight Award is named after the legendary REINSW President and first Australian ever to be elected World President of the International Real Estate Federation and was the top honour presented at the 2014 REINSW Awards for Excellence Gala Dinner last night.
REINSW President Malcolm Gunning paid tribute to Mr Scholes and the stamp he has made on the industry as an auctioneer.
“David is a true believer in the auction method of sale. He has set the benchmark for auctioneering over the past decade," Mr Gunning said.
“As a dedicated and active member of REINSW, David has not only invested heavily in his own career, but also in the careers of his peers – working hard to improve the standing of auctioneers in NSW, as well as working for the benefit of the industry overall.
“David has had an active hand in training and mentoring many of today’s very best auctioneers.
"Always willing to give of his time and share his wisdom with an eager learner, countless agents and auctioneers have benefited from his wisdom and knowledge.
"He is a deserving winner of the 2014 Woodrow Weight Award for outstanding service to the Real Estate Institute of New South Wales and the profession."
