Founded by Dave and Gail Liniger in 1973, in Denver, Colorado. The Linigers were not satisfied with the way real estate business was conducted at the time. The traditional business model meant agents who made the most money paid for the inexperienced or new agents. Newer agents would tend to leave in the first two years of business, causing a high-turnover industry comprised of inexperienced and unprofessional staff.      To address this issue, the Linigers created a company where the entire pool of agents would share the overhead and retain more of the commission. This naturally attracted more professional agents.      Some of the services created by RE/MAX International to help its members to succeed include commercial investment, an international referral network, advanced training, state-of-the-art technological tools, Internet and extranet Web sites, and national television advertising campaigns. However, the RE/MAX Satellite Network is dedicated to real estate professionals. RE/MAX is the only company to invent and maintain a satellite television network.      Probably the most notable part of RE/MAX would be the hot air balloon logo and how it is recognized by the home buying and selling public.   Community Involvement      However, what should be recognized by the public and often goes unnoticed is the community involvement by RE/MAX and its associates RE/MAX cause marketing and charity fundraising take on many forms. RE/MAX is a national co-sponsor of the Breast Cancer Survivor Recognition Program at Komen Race for the Cure® events. The RE/MAX organization has been the official real estate sponsor of Children's Miracle Network since 1992. Each year, about 20 charities host fundraising golf tournaments at Sanctuary, the private course of RE/MAX International Co-founders Dave and Gail Liniger. RE/MAX International, Inc., is sponsoring RE/MAX Tour for the Troops to benefit two organizations dedicated to improving the lives of disabled veterans: Fisher House Foundationtm and Sentinels of Freedom Scholarship Foundationsm. Warrior One, the famed Hummer H1 that was embedded with a CNN news team in Iraq and refurbished on the “Overhaulin’” program, is the centerpiece of the tour. It’s available for appearances across the United States. All these avenues and more represent the RE/MAX network's commitment to community involvement, serving the public beyond its real estate needs.
