About RE/MAX Real Estate

and Why It's Imortant to You - Our Clients

Originally founded in 1973, RE/MAX is currently the largest real estate organization in the world with approximately 112,000 agents in 7,000 offices in 65 countries. The company is still privately held and run by the original founder, Dave Liniger and his team headquartered in Denver, CO.

RE/MAX agents are among the most experienced in the industry and have more advanced accreditations than any other real estate firm or organization. RE/MAX agents currently average 13 years of real estate experience, the highest of any real estate company brand. (Accoring to the National Assoc. of Realtors 52% of licensees have less than 3 years of experience and the industry average is 5 years.) More experienced agents will typically have more past clients, receive more referrals, have more listings, receive more sign calls, have more buyers, etc. This means RE/MAX agents are very likely to provide superior results for our clients and provide superior real estate advice allowing RE/MAX clients to make better informed decisions.

Each of these RE/MAX agents is promoting remax.com (a property search system for buyers) and helping their clients relocate all over the world using the RE/MAX on-line referral network to other RE/MAX agents. This size, experience level, committment to continued education, and the use of advanced information technology is the reason RE/MAX has, and continues, to dominate the real estate industry world wide and in virtually every major population area.

According to NAR (National Association of Realtors) statistics about 80% of home buyers started their new home search on the internet in 2007 – up from 40% just a few years prior. The internet is becoming increasingly more important in the real estate industry.

Remax.com is, by far, the most highly visited real estate company web site in the world with over 2.7 million unique (new) visits per month. RE/MAX spends approximately $60 million annually on promoting and developing remax.com alone. Since March 2006 remax.com has connected RE/MAX agents to over 4 million buyers visiting remax.com who requested that a RE/MAX Realtor help them tour or purchase a home they found on remax.com. Currently remax.com generates about 6,400 such "buyer leads" to RE/MAX agents per day. You may easily compare up-to-date real estate company internet statistics yourself at http://alexa.com.

RE/MAX spends approximately $1.2 Billion per year system wide on all forms of advertising, including TV commercials, newspaper and magazine ads, direct mail, and other media that are continually driving more and more traffic to remax.com.

RE/MAX is also the most highly recognized real estate organization "brand" in the world with it’s famous red, white, and blue balloon and familiar tag lines: “Above the Crowds!” and “Outstanding Agents. Outstanding Results”.

The net result is that RE/MAX agents dominate in almost every major real estate market in the world. RE/MAX dominates in Southern California by a large margin.
