Real Estate Today New Zealand celebrates two-year milestone as industry leader

Real Estate Today New Zealand proudly commemorates its two-year milestone as the leading real estate publication, distinguished by its commitment to journalistic integrity, comprehensive reporting, and unparalleled industry insights.

Unlike other publications, Real Estate Today consistently delivers meaningful, well-researched stories that add real value to the real estate community.

Over the past two years, the publication has become a cornerstone of the New Zealand real estate landscape, fostering community engagement and providing thought-provoking insights that resonate within the industry.

Reflecting on the journey thus far, Editor Nic Fren expressed profound gratitude for the overwhelming support received from the New Zealand real estate community.

Taking a more collective approach, Real Estate Today New Zealand has prioritised collaboration by creating opportunities for agents to share their stories and successes.

"Our aim is to ensure that every agent, regardless of their market position, has the chance to showcase their achievements and stories," says Mr. Fren.

"By fostering collaboration and offering a platform for diverse voices, we strengthen the real estate community as a whole."

Since its inception, Real Estate Today New Zealand has taken a comprehensive and thought-provoking approach to real estate journalism, covering not just key industry moments but also offering deep dives into emerging trends, market analyses, and the stories that matter most to real estate professionals.

While other industry publications may focus on news updates, Real Estate Today delivers a deeper, more analytical approach.

We prioritise context, expert commentary, and thoughtful reporting that truly reflect the dynamic nature of the real estate industry. This commitment to quality journalism sets us apart and solidifies our reputation as a trusted voice within the sector.

The publication has also showcased inspiring stories of charity work, professional accomplishments, and the collective commitment to uplifting the industry.

Highlights of the Past Year

This year, Real Estate Today New Zealand introduced the Rising Stars accolades, designed to elevate and celebrate the incredible achievements of those under the age of 25. "We feel that with the next generation of real estate professionals, the industry is in good hands," says Mr. Fren.

In August, Real Estate Today New Zealand spoke at The Property Management Conference in Wellington, discussing marketing, building a brand, and public relations. The publication also supported NZREC by promoting the inaugural conference through its channels, showcasing its ongoing commitment to the real estate community.

Additionally, Founder Nic Fren embarked on a tour of New Zealand twice, in August 2024 and more recently, visiting offices, meeting agents, and learning about different marketplaces. "Our publication is built on the interest of our industry, so it's essential we get out there and engage as best we can to continue to support this space," says Mr. Fren.
