CoStar Group has opened nominations for the sixth annual CoStar Impact Awards, which celebrate commercial property projects and transactions. Entries are submitted through CoStar's new streamlined submission form, with a deadline of 31 January 2027.

Why it matters

The awards spotlight commercial real estate work across a wide set of international markets and give industry professionals a formal platform for recognition. Judging panels of commercial property professionals assess projects that show growth, creative thinking, and the ability to overcome complex challenges.

UK award categories are Lease of the Year, Commercial Development of the Year, and Sale/Acquisition of the Year, with winners receiving a customized trophy and promotion on the CoStar platform.
