| RE/MAX"> | We're the Real Estate Leaders®. No one in the world sells more real estate than RE/MAX. RE/MAX at a glance: 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 43 countries and eight territories, on six continents. The revolutionary RE/MAX Concept of enabling real estate professionals to maximize their business potential has evolved into an organization of more than 80,000 Sales Associates in more than 4,400 offices worldwide. RE/MAX Associates, on average, lead the industry in production, experience, and professional designations. 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 more than 80 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. 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. In 1997, 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. 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. 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 fastest-growing real estate services franchise in 2002. 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. RE/MAX - now an established industry leader - celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. Young in years but mature in experience, RE/MAX looks ahead to even greater development and success in its next quarter century. | | | | Gary Jutras RE/MAX Real Estate Center 17 Cocasset St. Foxboro, MA 02035 | | Phone: | 508-543-3922 x327 | | Toll Free: | 800-564-3629 x327 | | Pager: | 508-489-8257 | | Fax | 508-543-7941 | | Email:: | gary@garyjutras.com | | | Web Site written, maintained and hosted by Gary Jutras |  | | | |
