Vidal brings 29 years of experience to the role, most recently serving as President of ERA Real Estate, where he was the first Hispanic president of a major national real estate brand.

"Alex understands this business from the ground up and has spent his career helping agents, Broker/Owners and organizations reach the next level of what's possible," said Tamir Poleg, Chairman and CEO of Real REMAX Group. "He brings the experience, drive and competitive mindset this moment calls for.

"I've spent my career working alongside agents and Broker/Owners, understanding their businesses and helping them reach levels they may not have thought possible," said Vidal, President of REMAX. "I'm excited to bring that experience to the REMAX network, learn from the REMAX community and then work alongside them to make sure all our efforts are focused on helping them have their best year yet."

As President of REMAX, Vidal will lead the REMAX brand and work closely with its global network of affiliates. He will be responsible for driving growth across all regions, developing services for Broker/Owners and agents and shaping the long-term strategic vision of the brand, alongside Real REMAX Group leaders.

Vidal's appointment follows the August 24 closing of the transaction that created Real REMAX Group. He joins other recently named company leaders, including Jenna Rozenblat, Real REMAX Group President, and Amy Somerville, Real REMAX Group Chief Operating Officer.

"REMAX has an incredible story to tell, and I want to make sure we're telling it in a way that matches the strength of this network," added Vidal.
