Denver Origins

The Linigers envisioned a company that would attract the industry’s top performers by offering maximum commission, world-class resources, and the freedom to run their business independently.

As shown in this historical photo, the founders began mapping out their expansion strategy early on, placing red markers on a Denver map to identify target locations. This methodical approach to growth would eventually transform a single office in Denver into a global powerhouse spanning more than 110 countries.

Today, with over 140,000 associates worldwide, RE/MAX maintains its founding principles of providing industry-leading training, support, and technology to empower agents to deliver exceptional client service. The iconic hot air balloon logo has become synonymous with real estate excellence and professionalism across the globe.
