In recognition of this performance, Nedbank Namibia honoured its real estate agents and agency partners during an intimate award ceremony at Maerua Rooftop in Windhoek on Thursday, 14 September, for outstanding contribution and support in the home loans sector.

Rightmove Properties won the Agency of the Year Award 2022, followed by Ramos Realtors in second place and Ino Properties & Real Estate in third place.

Nedbank also acknowledged other top achievers in real estate, including Andrea Pereira, Caroline da Rocha, Chane Halbich, Denise Smit, Elna Esterhuizen, Eight Management (Jacko Kuhn) and Heinrich Schmidt.
