RE/MAX – #1 in the world & #1 in Airdrie

RE/MAX has been number one  for Airdrie market share for over 30 years! The fact is that with over 35% market share we sell three times the number of homes as our closest competitor. There are many reasons why. It’s an amazing story! RE/MAX Professionals work in the same communities we live in, and lead the industry both locally in and across Canada. On average RE/MAX Agents have more education and experience than any other international agency. RE/MAX agents are just plain better qualified. That’s why no one sells more homes than RE/MAX….  period.

RE/MAX AT A GLANCE

Who We Are

RE/MAX began as an idea in Denver, Colo., in 1973 scribbled on “a pad of paper”. That dream is now a global real estate franchise network that spreads across 100 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 7,000 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.

An Industry Leader

RE/MAX is the No. 1 real estate organization in Canada and in the United States and has been since 1987.

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 in across Europe, in Asia, and in Australia. RE/MAX now has agents in over 100 countries around the world!

Record RE/MAX Production

In 1999, RE/MAX Associates were involved in more than 1 million sales transaction sides within a single year in the United States alone – an industry milestone. The audited production figures represent the most transaction sides in a single year ever recorded by any real estate network. The RE/MAX network has repeated the feat ever since. Whether measured by closed transaction sides, average agent productivity (as documented in several annual industry studies), brand name awareness, education, experience or an assortment of other key metrics, RE/MAX enjoys a top position in a very competitive landscape. 

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 its annual ranking of top franchises, Entrepreneur magazine named RE/MAX the number one real estate services franchise in 2000. On the consumer front, Worth magazine honored RE/MAX in both 1999 and 2000 with its prestigious “Readers’ Choice” award as the best real estate brokerage.

40 Years Above the Crowd

RE RE/MAX – now an established industry leader, celebrating its 48th anniversary in 2021. Young in years but mature in experience, RE/MAX looks ahead to even greater development and success in the future.

Community Involvement

Community involvement is highly valued at all levels of the RE/MAX organization – from individual Associates to RE/MAX offices, regions, and RE/MAX International. RE/MAX cause marketing and charity fund raising take on many forms:

  • With RE/MAX’s “Sold on a Cure” program, participating RE/MAX agents have voluntarily pledged to make a donation to Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation from each home sold. RE/MAX is also a national co-sponsor of the Breast Cancer Survivor Recognition Program at Komen Race for the Cure® events.

All These Venues And More Represent The Re/Max Network’s Commitment To Community Involvement, Serving The  Public Beyond Its Real Estate Needs.
