Colorado’s Largest RE/MAX Affiliate Adopts Buyside Platform

Arvada-based RE/MAX Alliance, the largest RE/MAX affiliate in Colorado and one of the top 15 largest brokerages in the country by annual sales volume, has launched a new platform for its agents to provide unprecedented insight into real-time buyer demand in their marketplace. Powered by data analytics and marketing company Buyside, the platform aggregates buyer activity across major real estate search portals, brokerage websites, property showing applications and more, helping identify prospective buyers for a specific home.

“We’re committed to providing best-in-class technology tools to our agents and the customers they serve. Buyside brings us powerful insights about what’s happening in the marketplace and allows us to more effectively bring buyers and sellers together,” said Chad Ochsner, Broker/Owner of RE/MAX Alliance.

Buyside is now live on RE/MAX Alliance’s brokerage website, www.HomesinColorado.com, providing prospective sellers access to multiple valuations for their home, a buyer demand heat-map as well as a list of ‘Featured Buyers’ who are actively searching for a similar property. The data driven platform from Buyside will generate additional listing opportunities for the brokerage and help facilitate faster, more efficient transactions, giving RE/MAX Alliance’s 800+ sales professionals a significant competitive advantage.
