Let's Talk Turkey!

Thank you to RE/MAX Prestige and George's Automotive. Together we supplied Thanksgiving dinners to more than 50 local DSS families!! Many agents put together their own Thanksgiving baskets to donate last week and for the many that donated money we worked with Shaws where they boxed up complete dinners including turkeys, pies, and all of the fixings. With the holidays approaching RE/MAX Prestige has also committed to helping 25 DSS families for the holidays. If you're interested in a Christmas wish list for a local family please email salcorn@remaxprestige.com. We appreciate your holiday support! Keep up the great work!

RE/MAX Prestige in Methuen Holiday Parade


Check out TEAM RE/MAX PRESTIGE as we make our way down the streets of Metheun in the annual holiday parade! You couldn't miss our crew with the RE/MAX PT Cruiser and the RE/MAX balloonman marching beside us. It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon for a parade and our unbeleivable team gave out over 1200 candycanes! What a great afternoon of spreading holiday cheer!

All I Want for Christmas....

Is a new house! At RE/MAX Prestige, we LOVE it when agents think outside the box. That's why we were so impressed when Team Fulford (Malcolm and Roberta Fulford) from our Pelham, NH office took the liberty of renting a kiosk at the local mall for the holiday season! With the extension of the tax credit, there's no better time than now to buy or upgrade a home. What better way to meet and greet the masses than distributing important tax credit and home buying information at the mall during the holidays. Kudos to Team Fulford for a job well done!

Welcome to Methuen - RE/MAX Prestige!

The merger of two long-established real estate firms in the Merrimack Valley area has further strengthened the Re/Max organization in that segment of Essex and Middlesex County Real Estate market. The merger involved the acquisition of Re/Max Preferred of Methuen, one of the pioneer RE/MAX offices in New England which has been in business for twenty five years, by Re/Max Prestige with offices in Chelmsford, Dracut, Billerica, Tewksbury, Pelham, Tyngsboro, Groton, and Westford, as well as two offices in Western Massachusetts in Wilbraham and East Longmeadow.

"Given the strength of the Re/Max brand in our area, we're very excited about the prospect of expanding further into the Methuen Market" said Andrew Armata, who along with his partner, Stacey Alcorn, acquired the Methuen office of Re/Max Preferred in November. The Prestige Lawrence office has been merged into the Re/Max office in Methuen and will now host more agents and continue operating under the Re/Max Prestige name.

Armata noted that even with existing offices in eight surrounding towns, the idea of adding a Methuen location was quite attractive. "People like doing business with a real estate firm that has an office in their community, so even though the current business environment is not one that makes it easy to expand, we felt it was an opportunity we should not pass up. It gives us top franchise marketshare in both Methuen and Lawrence as well as additional marketshare in Haverhill, North Andover, and Salem NH, he said.


Armata noted that the Prestige office is also perfectly located because, like his other Merrimack Valley offices it offers great opportunity for further expansion up both the Route 93 and Route 495 Corridors. "The multiple offices throughout MA & NH really offers both our agents and customers a lot of convenience," Armata said.

RE/MAX Prestige now has approximately 200 agents and is the largest RE/MAX office in New England. As well, the firm in total is expected to come in number five in unit sales for all real estate offices in Massachusetts for 2009.
