The prestigious property award event, the Golden Property Awards (GPA) 2025, was officially held by Indonesia Property Watch (IPW) together with Rumah123 at Raffles Hotel Jakarta on Monday, September 29, 2025. This pinnacle evening became a moment of appreciation for the best projects and key figures in the domestic property industry.
IPW CEO Ali Tranghanda emphasized that GPA 2025 differs from similar awards by using a comprehensive assessment method based on in-depth research.
"We employ the IPW Standard Project Rating 2.1 system. Evaluation isn't solely based on documents or desktop data, but also through direct field visits. There are 24 criteria we use, ranging from design, building quality, legality, to marketing strategy," explained Ali.
The selection process ran from February to early September 2025, lasting approximately eight months. From around 500 property projects screened, only 170 projects advanced to the final assessment stage. Of these, 76 projects ultimately qualified for awards.
"Besides project awards, there are also 10 individual categories. For these categories, we don't choose arbitrarily. The process involves surveys, interviews, and market intelligence to ensure truly credible results. So it's not just assessing performance, but also the personal integrity of these figures," Ali added.
Furthermore, Ali stressed that GPA is Indonesia's only property award platform based on independent research.
"The Golden Property Awards are objective, independent, and non-transactional. This is a form of appreciation for those who have significantly contributed to national property development," he affirmed.
One of this year's award recipients was Darma Mangkuluhur Hutomo, Main Commissioner of PT Intra GolfLink Resorts and son of Tommy Soeharto. He received the Best of The Best Premium Villa Project award for his managed villa project in Bali.
"Thank you Golden Property Awards for granting us the Best of The Best Premium Villa Project. This award is invaluable and motivates us to continue delivering Indonesia's finest villas," said Darma.
With stringent assessment standards and a lengthy selection process, GPA 2025 reaffirms its reputation as the benchmark for quality and integrity in Indonesia's property industry.
