“I have never seen such a willingness to share experiences.”

The basic idea Dave and Gail Liniger, started in 1973 is still the vi-

sion pursued by RE/MAX all across the globe: “Improve the work-

ing environment and the income potential of Sales Associates as

well as their professional service level - and their chances of suc-

cess will also increase.” This always keeps the end-consumer in

focus and is known as the “RE/MAX Culture of professionalism”.Dario CastigliaRegional DirectorItaly

“The investment is relatively very low for something which can

give you such a high return.” The “Everybody Wins” strategy both

closes the winning circle and opens the door to constant growth,

from which everyone benefits. In an environment where every-

body focuses on their specific tasks and goals, they can also fully

rely on the others to fulfill their part – Regional Directors drive

market growth, Broker/Owners lead their group and Sales Asso-

ciates provide top notch services to end-customers who rely on

professional guidance in every property decision.
