New Fellows welcomed into the REIQ fold

REIQ Fellows, Outstanding professional conduct

The Real Estate Institute of Queensland (REIQ) is proudly awarding real estate professionals from across the state with an REIQ Fellowship, to honour their exceptional commitment to their craft.

With approximately 48,000 registered real estate practitioners in Queensland, being raised to Fellow status within the REIQ is a mark of distinction and recognises outstanding professionals.

The prestigious title of REIQ Fellow is awarded to practising members who have completed a total period of 15 years membership and who have been carefully selected and appointed by the REIQ Board for satisfying specified criteria.

REIQ CEO Antonia Mercorella congratulated and warmly welcomed the new Fellows from all corners of Queensland and expressed appreciation for their enduring support and dedication.

“This accolade is a testament to those in our profession with long-standing dedication to professional excellence and betterment of the real estate industry,” Ms Mercorella said.

“Fellows are a valuable part of our dynamic association that’s proudly dedicated itself to advancing the real estate profession across Queensland for more than a century.

“The appointment of new Fellows continues this tradition, celebrating those who exemplify the qualities we hold in high regard, including a high standard of professional conduct, an ongoing commitment to professional development, and a drive to give back and contribute to the profession.

“Their contributions have helped to elevate the standards of the industry, and we are confident that they will continue to uphold our values and inspire others through their exemplary service.”

For FY23-24, 83 professionals will be appointed and counted among the ranks of esteemed REIQ Fellows. Newly appointed Fellows have been notified this week and will receive a formal certificate commemorating this significant achievement.
