Team Regency Myths & Truths....

Myth; "RE/MAX IS ONLY FOR TOP PRODUCERS"

TRUTH; While it's true that RE/MAX is the home of top producing agents,
and that RE/MAX has a higher percentage of agents earning in the top 5%
nationally than any other company, it would be inaccurate to say that RE/MAX
is only for top producers. In fact, because of our low fees and high commission
philosophy, RE/MAX is the perfect fit for the rising star, or agents that wish to
operate at levels that fit their business goals and personal lifestyles.

Myth; "RE/MAX ONLY WANTS EXPERIENCED SEASONED AGENTS"

TRUTH; What we are looking for are professional people with a business and
or sales background and an entrepreneurial spirit, that know and understand
what it takes to succeed in business today. RE/MAX is not for the hobbyist,
part timers or people not serious about their business. Success is contagious
and we want agents inspiring others and being inspired by others. Whether
you are newer to the business, or a seasoned veteran, if you have the commitment,
dedication and passion to succeed and get the most from your business, this is
where you belong.

Myth; "RE/MAX WILL COST ME LISTINGS AND BUYERS"

TRUTH; Actually, just the opposite will be the case. When agents join RE/MAX
they will see their business increase. There are many reasons for this is,

(Go to "Why Agents Change" and click on Agent Production) one of which is
that agents have more money to spend on their own self-promotion when they
on't have to pay high broker fees. Top agents know that real success comes from
investing in their own business, not their broker's business.

Myth; "RE/MAX IS EXPENSIVE TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH"

TRUTH; That's what our competition would like you to believe, but the simple
truth is just the opposite. RE/MAX's core philosophy and where our very name
comes from, 'Real Estate Maximums', allows agents to retain the maximum
commission possible while having the lowest fees available for a name brand
company. (Go to Fees & Benefits on this website and compare our rates to what
you are paying.)

Myth; "RE/MAX WILL NICKEL & DIME YOU WITH
ADDITIONAL FEES AND CHARGES"

TRUTH; Other companies try to convince agents there are hidden fees at
RE/MAX because they can't compete with the significant savings agents enjoy
when affiliated with RE/MAX. How can RE/MAX be so much less than other
companies? Simply put, it's 'Broker-centric' versus 'Agent-centric' philosophy.
At RE/MAX we believe the agents should keep more of what they earn. We
believe when agents affiliate themselves with "Agent-centric" companies,
like RE/MAX ... Everybody Wins.

Myth; "RE/MAX IS A DESK FEE OFFICE ONLY"

TRUTH; RE/MAX has always been a fee office concept. That is the basis
on how the company was founded. And it will maintain the fee concept and
encourage its agents to structure their business that way, because it is the
most cost effective for the agents. Maximizing your profits is what RE/MAX
is all about. However, for those converting from another company in which
they were on a funded program, and are not yet comfortable with the desk
ee structure RE/MAX Regency does offer a split commission program.

Myth; "RE/MAX OFFERS NO TRAINING. YOU ARE VIRTUALLY ON YOUR OWN"

TRUTH; Probably one of the biggest myths of all. The fact is RE/MAX is the
leader in agent training. Providing 20 hours of advanced and comprehensive
training every week, right in our own office, on the RE/MAX Satellite Network.
Also available on RSN is our Coaching Hall of Fame series, which airs on the
second Tuesday of every month, our SuperCharge your Career annual event
and the 100 Days to Greatness program. Some of the major names you will see
on RSN include Howard Brinton, Brian Buffini, Dave Liniger, Connie Podesta
and Richard Robbins. In addition to RSN training classes through our own office
at RE/MAX Regency.

Myth; "RE/MAX DOESN'T HAVE THE TOOLS, SERVICES OR
SUPPORT OF MY CURRENT COMPANY"

TRUTH; Once again the myth doesn't hold up to scrutiny. RE/MAX is the largest
real estate company in the world. Common sense alone would tell you there is no
tool or program we don't have or can't get. The fact of the matter is RE/MAX has
significantly more tools and programs available to agents than any other real
estate company period. Check out the Agent Tools on this website for just a f
ew examples.
