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 63 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 120,000 Sales Associates in
more than 6,600 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.
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.
