The frame should be a white-post hanging

*A�liates may use red-white-blue signage on properties that qualify for The RE/MAX Collection program, however, use of The RE/MAX Collection signage is strongly preferred.

*If a local law, rule, regulation, ordinance, code or covenant di�ers from these standards, the local requirements take precedence. In such cases, the A�liate should send the sign maker’s proof (mock-up) to the Standards and Quality Control Team at [email protected] for approval and help in preserving the RE/MAX standards as much as possible, within those requirements.

L IFESTYLEPHOTOGRAPHYWhether you are showing an agent relaxing at

home or a family enjoying their new dining

room, keep it candid. The idea is to capture a

moment instead of staging a pose. Don’t be

afraid to include the people and pets you

love—they’ll help you relax in front of the

camera. Feature a clean and luxurious

surrounding and shoot with natural light

during the morning or late afternoon.
