On March 20, 2024, ERA Realty which is a Real estate agency has celebrated the achievements of its agents. The even took place on its annual ERA Asia Pacific Business Conference 2024 at Marina Bay Sands. The event has been attended by the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Office and the Second Minister for Finance and National Development, Indranee Rajah. She was the guest of honour at the conference.

During the conference, ERA Realty showcased its 7 prominent female agents along with corporate leaders including Doris Ong who’s the deputy CEO.

The ERA Asia Pacific Business Conference 2024’s featured women include:

1. Brenda Zee, senior executive group division director

2. Joelle Chew, group division director

3. Tracy Teo, senior director of agency

4. Eileen Lim, team director; Joy Koh, chief marketing officer

5. Wong Shanting, vice president of research and market intelligence

During the ‘International Women’s Day’ Week, these featured women were spotlighted in a special pullout on EdgeProp Singapore on March 11, 2024. In addition to the celebration, ERA Realty is the only agency with leading women featured on EdgeProp Singapore for IWD 2024.

Honourable Indranee Rajah said in her statement, “Broadly, these are Singaporean families with a household income of $7,000 or less. This allows us to target the PPHS voucher to those with less income to defray their renting costs. Each eligible family will receive $300 per month, regardless of whether they rent an HDB flat or bedroom. Payment will be made on a reimbursement basis every few months.”

The featured women were honoured from CEO Bernard Tong of EdgeProp Singapore, with a framed commemorative blow-up of their feature. Meanwhile, Indranee Rajah alongside ERA CEO Marcus Chu were also present on the stage.

Marcus stated, “Recent announcements in Budget 2024 aim to refine some of the earlier changes to support targeted groups. These include offering the PPHS voucher for young parents awaiting their BTO flats and allowing retirees ABSD concessions to facilitate downsizing if necessary. The higher annual value bands for owner-occupier homes will reduce property tax for homeowners in 2025.”

This celebration has served as a platform for the women agents to get honoured for their achievements which shall later encourage them to thrive more towards their respective field.
