Three steps to winning the Residential Development of the Year
Nominations for the South Coast Property Awards 2025 are in full swing as we prepare to gather the region’s leading agents, developers, planners, consultants, property lawyers, and housebuilders for an unmissable night of networking and awards.
While this year’s event features an all-encompassing array of categories to be won, there’s one that may be particularly interesting to those involved in the world of residential property.
Sponsored by Gracelands, the Residential Development of the Year will be awarded to a specific housing development in the region that stands out from the competition.
Size doesn’t matter – our independent judges will consider everything from small brownfield developments to large housing estates. Your entry could be an innovative conversion of a building, so Permitted Development (PD) schemes are eligible.
But how can you give yourself the best possible chance of taking home this trophy from the region’s favourite property event?
Here are three steps to winning the Residential Development of the Year:
Show how your design is a cut above the rest
At the core of this category is simply good design. Whether you need to go into more detail about how you tailored your work to deliver the best possible results or you could benefit from making use of any supporting documents, particularly images, you may have, this is your opportunity to show your prowess on an immense scale.
Shout about your efforts towards sustainability
In the current world of property, sustainability is the name of the game. With companies across the region and beyond striving to improve their credentials regarding climate consciousness and work to improve the environmental health of the South East, explaining how you’ve gone above and beyond in this particular area could make all the difference.
Don’t spare any details about the challenges you faced
The winner of this category won’t necessarily be the development that faced the least obstacles. Displaying resilience and the ability to apply innovative solutions to your builds is always key to impressing our independent judges. Tell us all about the challenges you faced and how you overcame them if you want to take home the title of Residential Development of the Year.
So, think you’ve got what it takes to be one of this year’s winners?
Nominations are still open for an increasingly limited time, with entries set to close on the 27th of March.
We’ll be naming the Property Deal of the Year, Housebuilder of the Year, Young Property Person of the Year and more – don’t miss out on this golden opportunity for you and your business.
