Starting the year on a high note and looking forward to a great year ahead, RE/MAX Philippines opened its newest franchise, the RE/MAX United, last Jan. 18 at its office in Madrigal Business Park, Alabang, Muntinlupa City. The move affirmed the company’s growing presence in the country.

The newly launched RE/MAX United mainly focuses on, but is not limited to, listing and selling previously owned properties around Metro Manila.

RE/MAX has been credited for institutionalizing the local real estate brokerage system since it launched its operations in the Philippines in 2012. With the recent establishment of its 18th branch, RE/MAX takes pride in recognizing its professional and hardworking agents and the brand’s ability to utilize the power of social media for its long line of successes.

President and CEO of RE/MAX United Baring Olafsson during the launch of his RE/MAX franchise last Jan. 18 at its office in Madrigal Business Park, Alabang, Muntinlupa City. 

“I think RE/MAX is all about having great brokers and agents so if you have great people and great connections around the Philippines and in the world, that would help you create a fantastic brand,” said Baring Olafsson, president and CEO of RE/MAX United.

The newly launched RE/MAX United mainly focuses on, but is not limited to, listing and selling previously owned properties around Metro Manila. Olafsson explained that with people’s heavy reliance on the Internet, most of the inquiries and potential buyers they get learned about them online.

“We convince people to list properties with us because we have a state-of-the-art computer technology and we utilize our websites, Facebook, and all other social media platforms,” said Olafsson. “I understand that 75 to 80 percent of leads from buyers come from these property portals so we need to be the best in information technology and have a good presentation of the properties we have.”

RE/MAX opens its 18th branch in the Philippines, which affirms the company’s growing presence in the country.

Olafsson, who was an executive of a leading beverage company for 25 years, joined RE/MAX because he wanted to work with the world’s number one in real estate industry.

He affirmed that being “number one” gives them a very competitive advantage as people instantly recognize the brand. Building trust is likewise easy since a lot of clients are inclined to share their good experience with RE/MAX.

“I went with RE/MAX because of the brand recognition and the support system a number one brand brings to the market. The training and incredible support we get empower us to share the industry’s best practices throughout the company, which is made possible by the RE/MAX system,” Olafsson said.

Now that Filipinos are familiar with RE/MAX and how it works, Olafsson believes that the brand has changed the landscape of the local real estate industry and has brought an impressive level of professionalism into play.

RE/MAX continues to change the real estate industry by bringing a high level of professionalism into play.

“RE/MAX demonstrates a huge capacity for practicing professionalism in this industry. For this reason, the brand enjoys a high level of trust in the market. I believe RE/MAX will influence the market in a big, big way,” Olafsson said.

‘Annie’ is coming to Resorts World Manila

Tweet

After the success of different plays and musicals, Resorts World Manila is bringing another beloved classic this September. Annie, an original Broadway musical, will be the seventh major production of Resorts World Manila, through Full House Theater Company (FHTC) at the Newport Performing Arts Theater (NPAT).

Annie, whose story was based on a popular comic strip by Harold Gray entitled “Little Orphan Annie”, tells the story of an 11-year old girl looking for her long-lost parents. In her journey to find them, Annie discovered something else.

Annie set a six-year run record at the former Alvin Theater in midtown-Manhattan, New York. With the combination of music from Charles Strouse, lyrics from Martin Charnin and a book from Thomas Meehan, Annie got nominated for 11 Tony Awards where they won 7, including the Best Musical.

Annie is known for some of its award winning songs like “Tomorrow” and “It’s the Hard Knock Life”, making it a favorite for big and small productions all over the world. Since then, Annie had been adapted into a film with the third and latest version in 2014, starring Quvenzhané Wallis, Jamie Foxx, Cameron Diaz, and Rose Byrne.

“We will be singing “Tomorrow” altogether until we make it to September. Annie will surely be a hit like always, bringing fun to everyone and showing the importance of friendship, family, and love. ”

Tomorrow is Lea Salonga’s audition piece that landed her the most-coveted role of Kim in the musical Miss Saigon.
