BANGKOK: Phuket-based property companies took home four of 13 awards at the 2007 Thailand Property Awards, held in Bangkok December 1.
The Yamu was awarded the Best Resort Villa Development prize, Royal Phuket Marina won in the Best Resort Condo Development category, while the Lighthouse Club Green Development Award went to West Sands in Mai Khao. Siam Real Estate was awarded the Best Agent Website prize for www.siamrealestate.com
All of the remaining awards, aside from two that went to Samui-based properties, went to companies based in Bangkok.
Winners were selected from 112 entries by a team of 22 judges from a cross-section of industry players after a two-stage nomination process that whittled down the entries from an original 260 nominees.
The Thailand Property Awards, organized by Ensign Media, was first held last year. The awards aim to create awareness, showcase the best of Thailand’s real estate and promote the quality of Thailand’s real estate, construction, architecture, interior design and industry professional services, say organizers of the awards.
