“These franchise brokers/owners share several common threads,” says Michael Polzler, executive vice-president, regional director, Re/Max Ontario-Atlantic Canada. “Drive, tenacity, professionalism and a genuine desire to raise the bar are but a few.”
Jim Burton, Keith Bradbury and Kevin King of Re/Max United in Mount Pearl dominated the small market category, leading the top office in Canada and worldwide in closed transactions.
Brokers/owners Richard and Alex Pilarski of Re/Max Realtron – with offices in Markham, Richmond Hill, Thornhill, Willowdale, Scarborough, North Toronto and Mid-town Toronto – earned an award for greatest net gain in sales associates in 2010, both in Canada and internationally (multi-office category).
Re/Max Hallmark, under the direction of brokers/owners Ken McLachlan and Debra Bain, has retained the title of largest multi-office in Canada, working from nine locations. The company operates seven branches in Greater Toronto and was the first to cross-service urban centres and Ontario cottage country, with additional offices in Port Carling and Dorset.
