The National Association of Real Estate Editors offers 25 categories to recognize excellence in the extremely broad field of real estate journalism which runs the gamut from residential, commercial and mortgage finance to public policy, sustainable urban and home design, among others.
The Gold Award for Best Freelance Collection comes with a $500 cash prize.  The Platinum Award for Best Overall Entry includes a $1,000 cash prize.
Investment, mixed-used and high-rise development; transit-oriented projects; redevelopment of historic properties; real estate on Wall Street — securitized mortgages, publicly traded builders and REITs; commercial transactions; online real estate; short sales; multifamily; hotel and resort development; green building and remodeling are among the topics journalists may consider as they select their entries covering the constantly evolving filed of real estate. Staff writers, freelancers, columnists, bloggers and editors are eligible to enter their work. More categories are open this year for teams of journalists and digital journalists.

Commercial real estate writers, columnists, bloggers and editors — both staff and freelance — along with those covering the business of real estate brokerage, luxury housing and the mortgage market, should consider entering.

To enter, go here.
