Origins in the United States

RE/MAX, the world's most successful real estate network, was founded by RE/MAX International chairman Dave Liniger in 1973 in Denver, Colorado. At that time, most salespeople were earning just 50% commission and office owners directly controlled every aspect of a salesperson's job. Agents were disillusioned and unmotivated. Most left the industry with two years.

Liniger, a real estate agent himself, felt there had to be a better way and decided to start putting his dreams of a fairer real estate system into practice. He drafted an innovative business plan that put people first and enabled both office owners and agents to succeed. He called his master plan RE/MAX, an acronym for real estate maximums. Liniger and his wife Gail, also a real estate agent, hoped to make a difference with their new company and its unique business structure. What they achieved was nothing short of a global revolution. Today, more than 100,000 agents work in RE/MAX, with more than 6,000 offices operating worldwide.

Origins in Australia

RE/MAX began operations in Australia in 1997. The ompany was brought here by two highly-successful and innovative Australian real estate agents and businessmen - Peter Hanscomb, Chief Executive and Regional Director and Don Marion, Queensland Operations Director.

In 1995 Peter Hanscomb, who has more than 22 year's experience in real estate, went to the United States looking for a new way of doing business. Like Dave Liniger in 1973, Hanscomb felt Australia's typical real estate franchise systems were outdated and that it was time for an industry shake-up. While in the US he discovered RE/MAX - and it was a perfect fit.

Since 1997, RE/MAX Australia has experienced excellent growth as more and more agents realise the freedom, profitability and personal growth opportunities available to them at RE/MAX. The first office was opened in Queensland in 1997. Offices in New South Wales and Western Australia followed a few years later. Offices in South Australia opened in 2004 and offices in Victoria opened in 2005.

Today

RE/MAX Australia and New Zealand have joined together in the ANZAC tradition and is headed by Managing Director, Michael Davoren, in partnership with Keith Walker and Chris Chapman - owners of the master franchise for the region.

In the United States, Dave and Gail Liniger are still at the helm of RE/MAX International. The company's growth has been upstoppable. RE/MAX International has recorded growth every single year for more than three decades. On average, RE/MAX adds at least one new office to its international network each day and around 10,000 Sales Associates each year. RE/MAX operates in more than 50 countries worldwide, with offices in the United States, Canada, Africa, the Caribbea, Europe, the UK the Middle East and the Pacific.

The RE/MAX philosophy

"We find it interesting that some office owners who predicted that the RE/MAX program would fail now find themselves offering additional benefits to their own agents in an attempt to compete with RE/MAX."
Gail Liniger, RE/MAX International vice-chairman and co-founder

Competing franchise groups all over the world have started offering some of the RE/MAX benefits to their agents in order to compete with us. In Australia, some franchise groups are offering higher commission splits, some are letting agents have their photos on property signboards, others are finally giving their agents direct phone lines.

But these companies will not ever match RE/MAX because their philosophies are vastly different to ours. We value people above anything else and our way of doing business is specifically designed to allow Sales Associates and Broker / Owners to achieve great personal success. In our view, if our people are successful and happy, our company will thrive.
