EdgeProp Singapore hosted its annual EdgeProp Excellence Awards on 6 October at the newly-opened Pan Pacific Orchard, with the theme Sustainable Spaces. City Developments, GuocoLand, and UOL Group emerged as major winners with more than 7 awards each, while AMO Residence and Lentor Modern clinched all 7 Excellence awards in the Uncompleted Residential category.

Minister for National Development & Minister-in-charge of Social Services Integration, Mr Desmond Lee was present as Guest-of-Honour at the event to present the Sustainability Excellence Awards. The prestigious dinner event recognises and celebrates outstanding property developers and their developments that set a benchmark of excellence in Singapore’s real estate industry.

The event was sponsored by Geberit Southeast Asia, V-Zug Singapore and Mitsubishi Electric Asia Pacific, Official Knowledge Partners KPMG Singapore and CPG Corporation, and Supporting Partners Cosentino and Surface iD Studio. The esteemed judges of EPEA 2022 were Angela Lim, Co-founder of SuMisura; Desmond Sim, CEO of Edmund Tie & Company; Sky Seah, Academic Director at National University of Singapore; Tang Kok Thye, Associate Partner of ADDP Architects LLP; Yvonne Tan, Director of DP Green; and Bernard Tong, CEO of EdgeProp Singapore.

The gala night saw 220 guests in attendance, including key VIPs in the real estate industry. It was the first EdgeProp Excellence Awards graced by Minister for National Development, Desmond Lee. The earlier part of the day also saw guests gather for the EdgeProp Real Estate Salesperson Excellence Awards luncheon, with 100 guests in the Real Estate Salesperson industry present.

“Elevated inflation and soaring interest rates, compounded by cooling measures and buyers’ fatigue, the second half of 2022 and 2023 have proven to be challenging and competitive to most in the industry. Looking ahead, we’re in the midst of a big shake-up across various sectors, including real estate, all thanks to the constant progress in technology. Adaptability, embracement of innovation and technology is the compass guiding firms to excel in this modern era,” said EdgeProp Singapore CEO Bernard Tong.

The sustainability scoring methodology was developed by CPG Corporation, which borrows components from Building and Construction Authority’s (BCA) Green Mark Certification Scheme. The judging was done based on six categories: Landscape, Design, Innovation, Sustainability, Showflat, and Marketing. Scores were carefully reviewed by KPMG Singapore.

Minister Desmond Lee said during the event, “Today, we celebrate the success of many outstanding projects, and the collective effort by all to bring our real estate industry to greater heights. These projects are not just developments or assets, but they are the places that many of us proudly call home. Spaces that welcome friends and family with open arms, spaces that provide comfort and solace after a long day’s toil.”

“The theme of this year’s awards is ‘Sustainable Spaces’. The term ‘sustainable’ in this context is two-fold. On one hand, it represents our collective effort towards meeting Singapore’s net-zero emissions target by 2050. But ‘sustainable’ also speaks to another critical aspect of our journey. It refers to ensuring affordable and sufficient housing, which meets not only the basic needs but also the aspirations of Singaporeans. It’s about making sure every Singapore resident has a place to call home, a space to grow, dream, and thrive,” Tong added.

In conclusion, Minister Desmond Lee emphasised the need for sustainable development and the implementation of Singapore Green Plan 2030. “As we look towards the future, we do so with anticipation for the new heights you will reach and the new boundaries you will break next year.”
