That’s the message in the latest RE/MAX ad campaign. It is now available on YouTube and will be airing during popular prime-time tv shows. Each video features a couple or family with a different makeup, personality or stage of life need. As a result, their new home needs to be just as unique as they are. This means enlisting the help of a RE/MAX agent. Why should you work with a RE/MAX Agent?

When Paula Jones first joined RE/MAX, she was already one of the top-producing agents in Abilene, Texas. With the support and brand power of RE/MAX, she knew her career could only rise higher.

At the same time, the demands and the pace – always available, always on the go – wore her down over the course of 17 years. In 2015, Jones needed a change and wanted to achieve greater balance in her life. She decided she would build a capable team to take some of the pressure off. But she wasn’t sure where to start. Around this time, Jones met a Keller Williams recruiter who promised her she’d have the tools and resources she would need to build a profitable team – if she left RE/MAX. So, she did. Jones says it was the biggest mistake of her career. Broken Promises  “[The recruiter] told me that joining Keller Williams had changed her life, and I believed her,” Jones recalls. “She told me she had time for her family, because she had […]
