DENVER, April 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Once again,
RE/MAX, LLC (NYSE: RMAX) has been honored as a leading global
franchisor. In the 2015 Franchise Direct Top 100 Global Franchise
survey, RE/MAX is ranked No. 12 among such respected franchises as
Subway, 7-Eleven, Hilton Hotels and Hertz.
"To see the RE/MAX name mentioned along with such great
brands is a tribute to our many hard-working Affiliates in nearly
100 different countries," said Dave Liniger, CEO, Chairman of
the Board and Co-Founder of RE/MAX, LLC. "For 42 years, we've
made a commitment to developing a business model that serves
consumers in a variety of business environments around the world."
For three years in a row RE/MAX has been the highest-ranked real
estate franchise on the Franchise Direct Top 100 list. This year,
only two other real estate franchises made the cut. Century 21 held
the 31st spot and Coldwell Banker
came in 52nd.
Now in its seventh year, the Franchise Direct survey considers a
number of qualifications to arrive at a final ranking of global
franchises, including the number of franchise units, revenue,
growth and long-term stability. The survey's methodology also
considers "a commitment to training and support . . . and the
ability to keep pace with ever-changing social and economic
conditions."
RE/MAX offers its franchisees world-class training opportunities
through RE/MAX University, a 24/7, on-demand, worldwide platform.
Franchisees also have access to many other proprietary technologies
and resources.
"We're proud to be an agent-centric network of top producers
and we work very hard to provide the support they need as they
reach for greater success," Liniger added.
RE/MAX has also been recognized in several other recent
franchise surveys. In January, Entrepreneur magazine's
Franchise 500 found RE/MAX to be the highest ranked real estate
franchise for the 3rd consecutive year. And last October, RE/MAX
was named the leading real estate franchise in the Franchise
Times Top 200 for the sixth year in a row. Also in October, for
the seventh straight year, RE/MAX was the only real estate
franchise ranked as one of the Top 50 Franchises for Minorities by
the World Franchising Network.
Earlier this month, RE/MAX announced that its worldwide agent
base had surpassed the 100,000 mark. And in 2014, the company sold
five Master Franchises which resulted in a global footprint of
nearly 100 countries, a number greater than any of its real estate
competitors.
