The Summer issue of RISMedia’s Real Estate magazine is now available, and not to be missed are several exclusive features, including an in-depth look at REMAX’s new era as it consolidates with The Real Brokerage and positions itself for an even bigger market share in the coming years. In addition, RISMedia’s 2026 Power Broker report is here, with an outlook into the potential return to normal this year as consolidation grows and collective sales volume shoots up.
On the Cover
Industry icon REMAX® is accelerating toward its next chapter
It’s the dawning of a new era at REMAX—one that became even more compelling with the April 27 announcement that REMAX Holdings, the parent company of the REMAX and Motto Mortgage® franchise brands, had entered into an agreement to be acquired by Real Brokerage. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of this year, creating a technology-enabled global real estate entity called Real REMAX Group—a combination that will bring together two unique and complementary companies with designs on driving more value to agents, franchisees, consumers and shareholders. In this month’s cover story, take a closer look at how the brand is redefining its place in the industry, and learn why Dean deTonnancourt led a bold transition to align his brokerage—and hundreds of agents—with the REMAX network.
Highlights
The 2026 Power Broker Report: Is the Long-Awaited Return to Balance Finally Here?
2025 was a year of challenge for most—but a great opportunity for some. While the results of RISMedia’s 38th Annual Power Broker Survey saw the Top 1,000 Power Brokers increase their collective sales volume by more than $100B in 2025, the spoils largely went to those with the wherewithal to merge, acquire or otherwise expand their presence on residential real estate’s increasingly altered playing field. In this special annual section, find statistics, analysis, broker insights and our Top 50 ranking.
