RE/MAX Realty Review - March 2013

REALTY REVIEW – March 2013

I never thought that me and my team will be able to pull off a considerable time in the new industry and will become pioneers in the organizing the highly unorganized industry, which is still unofficially contributing to India's GDP and giving largest number of employment as well. R4 just got finished at the MGM Grand Casino and Hotel at Las Vegas, USA. This was the mark of the 40 years of the one of the top 50 countries which has changed the world. R4 also marked the welcome of Mr. Dave Liniger on the stage saying that there is a still road ahead for the person. 40 years also marked the presence of 8000 participants under one roof. RE/MAX Hyderabad also bagged an award at the convention. It is proud moment in 2013 where both the months, we got recognized by International. Many congratulations to my team at regional office and franchise office owners and their team. In this month, we are also kicking off with the training series for the associates and the fresher who want to get trained in the rewarding career of real estate. At this juncture, I would like to reaffirm my commitment to the team of franchise owners and new people who will join us that we are change agents and we shall remain committed to vision of taking the 10% market share. A special thanks to two of my strong pillars, who have contributed to the success of RE/MAX Andhra Pradesh so far, is Ms. Meenakshi Ghosh and Mr. Santosh Kondasree. Both are a part of my initial team from the day one and have been with me on the roller coaster ride of RE/MAX Andhra Pradesh. Meenakshi brought a wealth of experience, provided and complemented me whenever I was not there and Santosh came with the youthful spirit, proved his loyalty to me all the time. I am proud that they are with me and constantly they push me and the team to get to our goals. In April, RE/MAX India is coming with their convention and I am sure it will be a fun of experience, learning and path ahead. I wish you all till next month.
