The Origin Story

Built By Agents,
For Agents

In 1973, Dave and Gail Liniger founded REMAX in Denver with a radical idea: agents should keep most of what they earn. At the time, traditional brokerages took a large cut of every commission. The Linigers believed the agents doing the work deserved the rewards.

That philosophy built the largest real estate network in the world — and it hasn't changed in 50+ years. REMAX is still privately held, still agent-first, and still fiercely independent.

When you join REMAX, you don't just get a brand on your sign. You inherit a 50-year legacy of excellence, innovation, and genuine respect for the professionals who carry it forward.

The Advantages Are Real

Here's what sets REMAX apart — and why the best agents choose it.

Brand Power That Opens Doors

The REMAX balloon is one of the most recognized symbols in the world. Consumers don't just know the name — they trust it. More inbound leads. More referrals. More repeat business. Without spending more on marketing.

2x more transactions than the average agent at competing brokerages

Global Network, Local Muscle

140,000+ agents in 140+ countries. You gain instant access to one of the most powerful referral networks on the planet. When your clients move, you move with them — and when agents around the world have clients coming to your market, you're who they call.

More referral transactions than any other real estate network

Productivity That Speaks For Itself

REMAX agents close nearly twice as many deals as agents at other national brands. That gap isn't luck. It's the compound effect of better tools, stronger brand recognition, and a culture built around professional excellence.
