Home The Property Congress
Australia’s Leading Property Event
Where over 800 Australian property professionals unite to learn from local and global experts on the issues facing the industry and communities we serve.
The Property Congress has been the industry’s premier annual national event since 1978, bringing together hundreds of established and emerging property leaders for three days filled with discussion, networking and learning.
It’s where delegates absorb critical details for their work, take home information that shapes their future decisions and build industry connections.
Each year the Property Congress moves to a different Australian location, and attracts a line-up of high profile, inspiring and insightful speakers, leaving delegates uplifted, more connected and better equipped to lead.
