Asha Agarwal is still that girl with big dreams… and is now a judge at one of the biggest nights in residential property.
A Special Evening
From starting out with no clear pathway into the industry… to now sitting alongside some of the most respected leaders as a RESI Awards judge – I’m so proud of how far I’ve come in my career and the 6th May 2026 was a night to remember at London’s Grosvenor House Hotel.

The RESI Awards, organised by Property Week, recognises and celebrates the achievements of those in the residential property sector. The awards bring together the most influential players in this field and it’s an incredible opportunity to see the wide range of talent across this industry that I’m so excited to be a part of.
It was an honour to judge alongside so many incredible peers:
Andrew Leslau, Catherine Williams, Charlotte Constance, Choisanne Man, Craig Bryant, Debra Yudolph, Deepa Deb, Dominic Morris,
Eleanor Deeley, Guy Windsor-Lewis, Henry Columbine, Jason Margrave, Jo McDonagh, Kimberley Hopkins, Mark Quigley, Natasha Virani
Neil Young, Nick Riley, Nyasa Beale, Olivia Harris, Rebecca Shafran, Richard McCarthy, Rishi Banerjee, Simon Hodson
Steve Cooper, Susan Freeman and Violet Tariro (Pugh) Mutsvedu.
Nights like this are a reminder that where you start doesn’t define where you end up.
Huge congratulations to Geeta Nanda OBE on the prestigious Hall of Fame Award – truly inspiring and so well deserved.
Gratitude
Being able to now play a small part in recognising the very best in residential property is something I am very grateful for.
A big thank you to Property Week for the opportunity to be part of this year’s judging panel.

Proud. Grateful. And still just getting started.
