DENVER, July 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Real estate
agents affiliated with RE/MAX have once again dominated the
esteemed 2016 REAL Trends "America's Best Real Estate Agents"
ranking. RE/MAX agents accounted for 22 percent of those listed in
the industry's largest agent ranking based on homes sold in
2015.

work and dedication to their home-buying and selling clients,"
