Real Shareholders Approve Deal to Create Real REMAX Group

The vote clears a major governance hurdle and leaves closing contingent on a final British Columbia court order and routine conditions in the coming weeks.

Overview

  • Securityholders of Real Brokerage and RE/MAX voted to approve the transaction on Friday, Aug. 14, 2026, with about 99.0% of Real votes and holders of roughly 78.8% of RE/MAX voting power supporting the deal.
  • The companies plan to operate as Real REMAX Group on closing, combining Real’s technology-driven brokerage platform with RE/MAX’s global franchised brand and network.
  • The combined company is projected to support more than 180,000 real estate professionals across 120+ countries and to have about $2.3 billion in pro forma 2025 revenue and $157 million in adjusted EBITDA before synergies.
  • Closing still requires customary conditions, most importantly a final order from the Supreme Court of British Columbia, and the firms expect to complete the deal in the coming weeks once those items are satisfied.
  • Management has begun integration planning and quantified cost-synergy targets, but they warn of risks to execution, agent and franchisee retention, regulatory approvals, financing impacts, and potential litigation.
