“Using the systems that RE/MAX already had in place, I immediately started generating income.”
DISCOVER THE RE/MAX DIFFERENCE
Jennifer Laughton RE/MAX Prosperity Realty Phoenix, Arizona
There are a number of reasons why RE/MAX agents outperform other agents. Here are a few:
JOIN THE MOST PRODUCTIVE
TEAM IN REAL ESTATE. Nobody in the world sells more real estate than RE/MAX. When you’re supported by award-winning training, industry-leading tools and the most recognized brand in the industry, the business follows naturally. The RE/MAX model serves top-producing agents, and those who aspire to be. At RE/MAX, you surround yourself with high-quality professionals. Performance inspires performance, and creates a high-energy, winning office environment. Why would you choose to be with someone else, when you can join the best?
• An agent-focused philosophy • High-commission concept – keep more of what you earn • The most recognized brand in real estate • Extensive services, training and technology
• A high-energy, productive environment • A vast support system • Free and effective lead generation • Premier quality service • Personal control over your business
REALITY VS. RUMOR We’ve all heard the rumors. The competition’s spin would have you believe that RE/MAX offers minimal support, little training, and is just too expensive. Nothing could be further from reality. So before you make the biggest career decision of your life, be sure to separate fact from fiction. And the fact is, the RE/MAX model was specifically designed to position you for success. You receive unparalleled training, support and brand awareness in a winning environment that encourages camaraderie and sharing the best ideas.

COMBINE YOUR STRENGTHS WITH OURS
RE/MAX offers you the training, tools and support to take your productivity to the next level. At the same time, you remain in control and enjoy the independence to conduct your operations as you see fit. The flexibility of the RE/MAX model puts you in prime position to reach your full potential in real estate. And it’s one of the reasons why, among the top national franchise organizations, RE/MAX agents average 85% more transactions than agents at the nearest competitor.
ENJOY A LARGER SLICE OF THE PIE
“The value of RE/MAX is undeniable. The tools and resources at RE/MAX enable me to provide top-notch service to my clients. At the same time, I enjoy the freedom to make the key decisions to best run my business.” Patrick Meehan Jr. RE/MAX at Barnegat bay Forked River, New Jersey

Not only do RE/MAX agents close more transactions, they also keep more of what they earn. At RE/MAX, you won’t experience that sinking feeling watching your hard-earned commission getting split into a smaller and smaller slice after everyone takes their cut. RE/MAX agents contribute their fair share toward monthly operational expenses. There are no surprises.

ADVERTISING THAT DRIVES BUSINESS Through the years, billions of dollars have been invested in promoting the RE/MAX brand.
INSTANT RECOGNITION. INSTANT CREDIBILITY.
Consumers learn about the value of RE/MAX, and you, through an extensive ad campaign. TV, radio, print, outdoor and online. Your RE/MAX ads are everywhere. These ads build brand awareness and tout the benefits of working with you, a RE/MAX agent.
Want to make a real impression among potential clients?
Additionally, the RE/MAX ad campaign serves another, yet equally important purpose: Every RE/MAX ad drives consumers to your listings at remax.com®.
Try placing the RE/MAX balloon logo next to your name. When you attach the most recognized brand in real estate to your business, you establish an immediate connection with consumers.
On average, remax.com delivers more than 4,000 leads to the RE/MAX membership every day, with no referral fees.
The RE/MAX brand enhances your already-established credibility and market influence – which leads to more business, and more income.
