This just in (via press release from RE/MAX Ontario-Atlantic)!
“RE/MAX Hallmark has opened its doors in Port Carling to cross-service recreational and residential real estate clientele in both Greater Toronto and the Muskoka region.
“Whether upsizing, downsizing, purchasing a family retreat or fulfilling retirement dreams, RE/MAX Hallmark now offers its clientele the best of both worlds,” says Debra Bain, Broker-Owner, RE/MAX Hallmark. “The new office will allow us to build on current client relationships, establish a stake in a high-demand marketplace, and increase our marketshare in both areas. Moreover, it will give our customers the flexibility to remain with a franchise they know and trust—and that’s quite a significant advantage.”
RE/MAX Hallmark will operate out of the former location of RE/MAX Muskoka Realty at 113 Medora St., Unit 1 in Port Carling. The 14 veteran RE/MAX Muskoka agents—consummate professionals with strong ties to the community—will remain with the Hallmark team.
“Our focus going forward will be to expand our sales force at the Port Carling office, and thereby expand our reach throughout Muskoka,” says Bain. “We’re making an investment where our clients want to be. We’re essentially moving with them.”
The new facility brings the number of RE/MAX Hallmark offices to eight and the total number of sales associates to more than 500, making the company the largest in the RE/MAX Ontario-Atlantic Canada franchise network.
Celebrating their 29th year with RE/MAX, the RE/MAX Hallmark team specializes in residential, recreational and commercial real estate. RE/MAX Hallmark helps thousands of individuals, families and businesses each year with their real estate needs. RE/MAX Hallmark is firmly entrenched in the communities it serves. It is a leading contributor to Children’s Miracle Network in Canada through the RE/MAX Miracle Home Program and grassroots fundraising initiatives. RE/MAX Hallmark is also a leader in in-house training and is a member of RE/MAX International’s Chairman’s Leadership Advisory Board—an association of 75 of the leading RE/MAX broker-owners worldwide. ”
Wow. We’re expanding like the Borg! Hmmm… maybe I can do some real estate business whilst visiting the in-laws next summer. I like the sound of that! 
In all seriousness, being able to take care of your recreational property buying and selling through your home brokerage will make things a lot simpler for you.
RE/MAX Hallmark strives to provide great services to all of our clients. Our expansion to Muskoka may not be of practical use to all of our clients, but I do hope that it shows you that we are a full service brokerage that covers all types, sizes and price ranges – including receational properties.
So, now you know: if you plan to buy or sell in the Muskoka region (or elsewhere) this year please do call and we’ll get you started! -SM
