The more than 350 brokers affiliated to the network looked after more than 4,600 sellers and buyers last year. With a good 2,300 properties sold throughout Switzerland, the investment volume brokered by RE/MAX Switzerland was increased by 200 million to 1.7 billion compared to the previous year. "We are benefiting from the steadily increasing awareness of the RE/MAX brand in Switzerland as well as the growing trust in our strongly regionally anchored brokers. But also the still intact real estate market with stable prices in the lower and middle price segment has of course contributed to this positive result", Marco Röllin, Managing Director RE/MAX Switzerland, explains the now 15th record year in a row.
With around 100 offices, RE/MAX Switzerland is now represented in all language regions of Switzerland. Röllin still sees development potential in French-speaking Switzerland: "In French-speaking Switzerland, we want to open at least ten new offices in the coming years. To lay the groundwork for this development, we had to make adjustments to the sales structure there in 2015 and close some smaller, unattractive locations." RE/MAX Switzerland's medium-term goal is to expand its network to around 400 brokers. The franchise company has already negotiated preliminary contracts for seven new offices, Röllin said. (mr)
