Description: RE/MAX is the largest franchised real estate broker in the world, with more than 50,000 agents in the United States and Canada alone—1,100 of whom are in the state of Maryland. Broker Mary Lou Kaestner has been in the real estate business since 1970. She opened her own office in 1981 and became affiliated with RE/MAX in 1994. She and her 14 full-time independent agents list and sell properties in Baltimore City and Baltimore, Anne Arundel, Howard, Harford, and Carroll Counties. One of the perks of being associated with a worldwide agency is the ability to reach people on the other side of the globe—real people with a name, a face, and a bio—and work with them to help clients who are looking to relocate or need to move people and companies. The bulk of the company’s business, however, is home sales. Agents handle properties in all price ranges, from $30,000 to $2 million and more.
