Phuket will be flying the flag for Asia-Pacific in the International Property Awards in Dubai later this year after Phuket.Net Real Estate scooped the Best Real Estate Agency Website in the region at last week’s Asia-Pacific Property Awards in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
www.realestate.phuket.net won the award this year following in the footsteps of www.cbre.co.th who collected the same award for the Asia-Pacific region last year.
Managing Director Alex Lotz in an exclusive statement to DDproperty.com, said: “I am very proud of our hard working team at Phuket.Net Real Estate. They continue to grow our site and services making it user-friendly, informative and efficient. To be recognised by International Property Awards for our efforts is extremely rewarding,”
Kit Fordham, General Manager, added: “We are a small independent agency competing against international brand names, and to receive industry recognition is very gratifying.”
Phuket.Net Real Estate won the Best Real Estate Agency Website in Thailand award, beating www.primerealestate-phuket.com and www.cbre.co.th to the title. It then beat competitor websites from Singapore and Australia to take home the Best in Asia-Pacific title and go forward to represent the region at the International Property Awards in December.
The website will face extremely tough competition to win the global title. Last year Manhattan Miami Real Estate took the top title for its www.manhattanmiami.com website while in 2012 it was www.foxtons.co.uk that took the top accolade.
