Real Brokerage Inc. is acquiring RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. for approximately $880 million. This deal marks a significant consolidation in the real estate sector.
The transaction will establish the combined company as Real REMAX Group. It will support over 180,000 real estate professionals and about 8,500 franchisees.
The announcement came early Tuesday from Miami, Florida. Real’s CEO Tamir Poleg emphasized the transformative nature of this merger. “This is a transformational moment for the industry,” he stated.
The deal values RE/MAX Holdings at approximately $880 million. Shareholders of Real will own about 59% of the new entity, while RE/MAX shareholders will hold around 41% on a fully diluted basis.
As of midday, the deal is expected to close in the second half of 2026, pending regulatory approvals. Real has secured a $550 million financing commitment to refinance existing debt from RE/MAX.
Projected annual revenue for the combined company is around $2.3 billion by 2025. This merger aims to leverage AI technology and enhance agent and consumer experiences within their global reach.
Erik Carlson, CEO of RE/MAX Holdings, noted that “Real brings differentiated, best-in-class technology that we believe will drive greater choice and higher productivity.” This partnership seeks to create a leading tech-enabled global real estate platform.
RE/MAX was founded in Denver in 1973 by Dave and Gail Liniger. With this acquisition, both companies aim to maintain significant operations in Denver while keeping headquarters in Miami.
