Frequently Asked Questions

How do RE/MAX fees compare to RaiderX?

RE/MAX offices typically charge desk fees of $300-$2,000+ per month, keep 5% of each commission on the common 95/5 plan, and add per-transaction franchise fees. RaiderX charges a flat $99/month total with 100% commission and no per-deal fees. For many agents that difference runs to thousands of dollars a year.

Is RE/MAX brand recognition worth the cost?

Studies show clients choose agents based on personal reputation, reviews, and referrals - not brokerage brand. You can build your own recognizable brand with RaiderX Team or LLC options.
