The Real Estate Leader.
No one in the world sells more real estate than RE/MAX.
Who We Are
What began in Denver, Colo., in 1973 as "a pad of paper and a
dream" is now a global real estate franchise network that spreads
across 54 countries and eight territories, on six continents.
Network Size
The revolutionary RE/MAX Concept of enabling real estate
professionals to maximize their business potential has evolved
into an organization of more than 100,000 Sales Associates in more
than 5,400 offices worldwide.
RE/MAX Sales Associates
RE/MAX Associates, on average, lead the industry in production,
experience, and professional designations.
The RE/MAX Balloon Logo
The red, white and blue RE/MAX Balloon, with its "Above the
Crowd!®" slogan, is one of the most recognizable business logos in
the world. With nearly 90 RE/MAX Hot Air Balloons around the
globe, RE/MAX has the world's largest balloon fleet.
RE/MAX is the No. 1 Real Estate Organization
in Canada and in the United States.
Global Expansion
The first RE/MAX region outside the United States and Canada was
the Caribbean Basin opened in 1991. It was followed two years
later by RE/MAX of Mexico. In 1995, RE/MAX expanded into Southern
Africa, Spain, Israel, Italy, and Germany. Since then, RE/MAX
regions have become established across Europe, in Asia, in
Australia, and in South America.
Record RE/MAX Production
In 2004, for the 8th year in a row, RE/MAX Associates were
involved in more than 1 million sales transaction sides.
The RE/MAX Concept
RE/MAX stands for "real estate maximums."
In exchange for paying a management fee and a share of the monthly
office overhead, RE/MAX Associates keep the maximum allowed amount
of their commissions and receive the many benefits of RE/MAX
programs and services.
By offering Associates maximum commissions and maximum career
freedom, RE/MAX influenced competitors to re-examine and adjust
their own policies toward sales agents, thus dramatically changing
the industry.
As the network grew, renowned for its top producers and quality
service to consumers, so did support programs, making RE/MAX a
dynamic force in real estate education and technology.
The organization was one of the first real estate companies to
have its own proprietary television network and one of the first
in the industry to develop a site on the World Wide Web.
Committed to Real Estate Service
In a business environment of mergers and acquisitions, RE/MAX is
the only major real estate network still owned and directed by its
founders.
RE/MAX commitment to its membership has led to an ever-increasing
number of accolades from the business community at large,
including selection of RE/MAX as the best in the business. In
January 2005, "Entrepreneur" magazine ranked RE/MAX among the top
10 franchises in its 26th Annual Franchise 500 survey. It also
named RE/MAX: "Best of the Best" for real estate services; the
highest-ranking real estate franchise in "Low Cost Franchises";
and No. 7 overall in "America's Top Global Franchises."
More than 30 Years Above the Crowd
RE/MAX - now an established industry leader - celebrated its 30th
anniversary in 2003. Young in years but mature in experience,
RE/MAX looks ahead to even greater development and success in its
next quarter century.
