The shortlist for the 10th annual Thailand Property Awards (TPAs) was announced with finalists revealed for 29 categories over three sections: Developer, Development and Design.
The awards promote a fairness and transparency with the process supervised by BDO, the fifth-largest accountancy network in the world. Some of Thailand’s most established developers along with many emerging developers entered projects this year.
This year’s TPAs will be held on 16th September at Plaza Athenee Bangkok (a Royal Meridien hotel). Winners are announced at the black-tie gala night and awards presentation ceremony where more than 600 respected industry leaders, VIPs and top real estate professionals will be in attendance.
“Celebrating 10 years of the Thailand Property Awards, and Asia Property Awards as a whole, is not only a milestone for us, but for the Thai real estate industry as well,” said Terry Blackburn, CEO of Ensign Media said in a press release. “In the past decade we have witnessed how much the industry has evolved from being an emerging market to becoming one of the stars of Southeast Asian real estate, despite certain challenges.”
The award for Best Developer, one of the most prestigious awards, will go to either ‘MQDC’ Magnolia Quality Development Corporation Limited or SC Asset Corporation PLC who made the cut as finalist this year. In the Best Boutique Developer, Absolute World Group and Emerald Development Group Co., Ltd. will compete for the honour.
Minor International Plc emerged as the most nominated developer this year with the company and its subsidiaries receiving six total nominations including four in the design categories, and two in the Best Villa Development (Phuket) and Best Hotel Development categories.
The finalists for Best Luxury Condominium (Bangkok) are Menam Residences by Menam Residences Co., Ltd., and the Ivy Ampio by Pruksa Real Estate Public Company Limited. The luxury segment is one of the strongest performing markets in Thailand and this category will highlight best luxury condo in Bangkok.
Finally, the Real Estate Personality of the Year will be presented to the individual that has made a significant impact on Thailand’s property sector in the last year. Previous recipients of the award include Tos Chirathivat, CEO of The Central Group and Sorapoj Techakraisri, CEO of PACE Development Corporation.
