What you heard about joining REMAX might not be true...

You may have heard several myths about joining REMAX, but they are simply not true. These comments usually come from competitors who fear losing their top agents.

Let's set the record straight and give you the lowdown:

1. “You can only join as an independent contractor.”

This statement is not true - you can join REMAX at whatever level you feel comfortable with. While REMAX was founded on the 100% commission model, this model has evolved over time to accommodate all types of commission packages and levels of experience.

2. “More like Feemax than REMAX.”

The best way to dispel the ‘Fee Myth’ is by way of a simple example. Let's say you are Joe, an Independent Contractor at a REMAX office. You sell a house for R1,000,000, with a total commission of R50,000. Here are the comparisons with three types of agencies: a traditional agency (50/50 split), a high commission agency (80/20 split), and REMAX:

Even in this simple example, the REMAX office scenario is more favourable, because a REMAX agent earns R1,080 more in commission than the high commission split agency. Additionally, what value does the ‘high comm’ office provide beyond the commission structure? Do they offer ongoing training, mentorship, multiple lead generation programmes, and the greatest brand recognition in the country and across the globe?

To further dispel this myth, let’s look at what happens when Joe sells two houses. REMAX’s Fixed Fees are capped per month. So, let’s say you sell two houses at R1,000,000 each. You then walk away with R87,830 in commission, which is R7,830 more than you would have earned with a high-commission brand:

3. “At that company, you’re left to fend for yourself.”
