RE/MAX
The History RE/MAX UK South was founded in October 2003 by Co-regional owners, Omer Zengin, Colin Flatman and Anthony Chamberlain. Having worked in the estate agency business for many years, they were disillusioned with the industry and the bad name that poorly trained novices and part-timers were giving the estate agency profession. They wanted to build a company where only full time professionally trained sales people were hired so homebuyers and sellers could be confident that they would receive the level of professionalism that a transaction of such magnitude demands. This had been the RE/MAX philosophy for nearly 30 years, so why try and reinvent the wheel, they approached RE/MAX in the summer of 2001 with a view to buy the whole region of Southern England, it was too good an opportunity to miss.
