Insights
RE/MAX's new AI-powered referral platform leverages its global network to potentially increase transaction volume and agent efficiency, though financial impact remains unquantified.
RE/MAX's launch of MAXRefer represents a strategic technological investment to capitalize on its extensive global network. This AI-powered referral platform connects 145,000+ agents across 110+ countries, streamlining how agents refer business to each other—a critical revenue stream in real estate.
The platform addresses several key friction points in the referral process by:
- Using AI to intelligently match referring agents with the most appropriate receiving agents
- Tracking referrals from initiation through completion
- Facilitating referral fee payments at closing
- Enhancing cross-border collaboration
From a competitive standpoint, RE/MAX becomes the first global real estate franchisor to implement RESAAS's enterprise-grade technology, which already serves 600,000+ agents worldwide. This suggests they've chosen a proven solution rather than building from scratch—likely reducing implementation risks while accelerating deployment.
For franchise operations like RE/MAX, referral optimization directly impacts the core business model. When more transactions stay within the network rather than leaking to competitors, it typically results in higher overall transaction volume. The platform's ability to track referrals end-to-end and facilitate payments could improve both agent satisfaction and fee capture efficiency.
What differentiates this initiative is how it leverages RE/MAX's uniquely global footprint as a competitive advantage. While many brokerages have referral systems, few have the international reach of RE/MAX, making this platform potentially more valuable for agents handling relocating clients across borders.
Without specific financial projections or implementation costs in the announcement, the magnitude of impact remains uncertain. The technology appears focused on optimizing existing business processes rather than creating entirely new revenue streams, suggesting an incremental rather than transformational effect on overall business performance.
The new industry-leading platform connects REMAX agents worldwide with smart matches and provides seamless at-closing fee payments.
MAXRefer is built to simplify every step of the referral process – from identifying the best agents to finalizing the transaction and facilitating referral payments at closing. The platform helps ensure a secure, efficient and transparent process by tracking referrals from initiation to completion, making it easier for REMAX agents to connect, collaborate and close transactions with speed and confidence.
"We are committed to elevating the experience for REMAX brokers and agents while enhancing the value proposition of our brand," said Erik Carlson, Chief Executive Officer of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. "With the introduction of our AI-powered referral platform, we are leaning in to support the REMAX community, helping agents earn more listings, save time, and tap into the unmatched global connectivity that sets REMAX apart."
REMAX is the first global real estate franchisor to capitalize on RESAAS's proven, enterprise-grade software. More than 600,000 real estate agents worldwide use RESAAS.
"The networking effect works best at scale. With an unrivaled global network of agents, REMAX affiliates are perfectly positioned to support their business and enhance their clients' experience with RESAAS's industry-leading Enterprise referral platform," said Tom Rossiter, CEO of RESAAS. "The global referral platform is the combination of the power of AI, RESAAS's proven technology and at-the-close referral fee payment. This is the future of how referral business will be done."
Added Travis Saxton, Executive Vice President of Strategy for REMAX: "With MAXRefer, we are able to scale the power of the REMAX network and leverage AI to make agents' lives easier and process referrals faster, which we hope will ultimately increase the number of network referrals as well as agent productivity."
With the launch of MAXRefer, REMAX reaffirms its position as a technology-forward real estate network who embraces innovation – giving agents a faster, smarter way to close deals.
