Frequently Asked Questions 
About Joining Our Team!

Q. What is RE/MAX?

A. RE/MAX is the largest real estate sales organization in the world. With over 70,000 sales and broker associates, RE/MAX sold over 1 million homes during 2001 in North America alone.

Q. How is RE/MAX different from other real estate companies?

A. The most obvious difference is the compensation structure. At RE/MAX, associates retain 95% of commissions from transactions and pay a monthly fee for operating their business within a RE/MAX office. Additionally, RE/MAX associates generally have more freedom to conduct their business as they wish to... from ad budgets, to contract negotiations.... it's like being in business for yourself but not by yourself. The structure also results in associates retaining more of their hard earned income.

Q. What Makes RE/MAX Partners Different?

A. Our operating philosophy sets us apart. At RE/MAX Partners, OUR ASSOCIATES ARE OUR CUSTOMERS and we offer them many value-added services.

Q. What can RE/MAX Partners do for my business?

A. Allow you to do more business with less effort! Take advantage of our services and capture more of the market.

Q. What services do you offer?

A. More than we can describe here, however here are examples of just two:

1. Our in-house graphics department produces full color flyers, brochures, postcards, newsletters, calendars and more! These marketing pieces help you; promote your listings, maintain contact with former clients and customers, and promote yourself and your business!

2. Our mailing and database management department maintains your mailing lists, prepares outgoing mail, and even transports it to the post office for you! It's truly a "Hands-off" marketing system that allows our associates to do what they do best.... list and sell real estate!

Q. What will my clients think?

A. All of the TV and Radio advertising sings the praises of RE/MAX associates so you'll be joining an organization where you've been presold to your future as well as your past clients. They will congratulate you on your move! RE/MAX is a company of real estate professionals... full-time sales associates committed to a high level of service and achievement. If that's you, your clients will know why you made the change.

Q. Why would my clients want me to be associated with RE/MAX Partners?

A. In addition to being affiliated with the largest real estate organization in the world, your selling clients will benefit from the many services that we offer you, the associate. From our award winning, color home brochures to our other marketing services including our Internet Website, we work with you to help sell their home!

An additional important fact is that you receive all calls on your listings-not a duty agent who most likely has not seen the property. After all, who knows more about your listed homes than you?

Also, the RE/MAX International Referral Network provides many leads that may result in the sale of your clients home. We even get referrals from agents affiliated with our competitors because they trust our associates to "get the job done" and look out for the best interests of their client. All with no middleman "referral/relocation department" that reduces your income further.

Your buying clients benefit from the many selling and informational tools that we have available including those offered through our website, computerized listing and sales forms, and more. These tools give you and your clients an advantage in the marketplace.

Q. Do I have to be a top producer to afford RE/MAX Partners?

A. No! To the contrary, many associates are good producers when they join us, but not top producers. However, they can become top producers as a result of the freedom to conduct their business as they wish and by utilizing the associate services that we have become well known for.

Q. What does it cost?

A. In general, it costs far less to be affiliated with us than with conventional companies. At most conventional companies, there's no limit to how much you pay your broker since you pay a percentage of your commission endlessly. And if one year isn't as good as the past, you may even be penalized for the lower production by having your commission split reduced. That's why year after year, good market or bad, our offices continue to grow!

Q. OK , So what's the catch?

A. No catch. In fact our offices provide so many company generated leads to our associates, that most associates can pocket 100% of all self-generated commissions after paying all expenses. Sounds too good to be true? It's not. Want proof? Call us for an absolutely confidential interview today and see for yourself how much you've been missing. 58000+ of your real estate colleagues can't be wrong!!!

RE/MAX Partners is the premier RE/MAX company in the Fort Lauderdale area.... and for good reason.... great sales associates, great locations and terrific in-house services!
