March 17th RE/MAX agents from across New England will gather for a fabulous day of celebration in Boston at the annual RE/MAX Awards Gala. This is truly an exciting day because RE/MAX Prestige will be taking home tons of awards. We are proud of our agents and proud of our career development staff because this list of award winners not only demonstrates that we have career driven agents who will persevere no matter what the market brings, but it also proves that the training, education, and continuing career development we bring to our agents works. While most offices are cutting back resources we continue to put funds back into the career training programs at our offices. Our per agent production exceeds any office in the marketplace and our agents are proving day in and day out, they are simply the best. Here is a recap of the 2008 award winners. If you’re interested in joining us for the awards gala please email Stacey at salcorn@remaxprestige.com. We’d love to have you celebrate success with us on March 17th.

We are always looking for new ways to promote our listings and now, more then ever, it’s important that we concentrate on drawing web traffic to our listings. That is why we are very excited to embrace a new technology known as Animoto, which has the ability to take still camera shots and meshing them together into an exciting video. Here’s a couple I recently put together using photos that depict what it means to work at RE/MAX Prestige : http://animoto.com/play/JeyL3HVDnxQDcTdMYsEfxg?from=share. When it comes to technology in real estate… there’s nobody more advanced then RE/MAX Prestige!
