    With unparalleled energy, veteran experience, and an unwavering enthusiasm for the future of the industry, Far North Queensland real estate professional and successful business operator Tony Williamson is bringing REMAX back to Cairns.

    No stranger to the power of the global brand, the incomparable Tony has a long-standing relationship with REMAX, having introduced Cairns to the network with the opening of his first REMAX franchise in 2004.

    In rapid succession, the brand - and indeed Tony - became well known across the region and by 2006 he had successfully sold his thriving REMAX franchise. He returned to the network in 2010, building REMAX Real Estate Services and positioning it to hold enviable market share in Cairns before selling the business in 2019.

    So, when his former office rebranded under new leadership, Tony was quick to seize the opportunity to reintroduce REMAX to the Carins market.

    “I bleed red, white and blue,” he said.

    “REMAX is an icon of the real estate industry globally. The largest in the world and still the brand that sells more real estate than any other. I’m very excited to be bringing REMAX back to Cairns and with that comes even better results for sellers and investors in the Far North.”

    Tony credits the brand’s leading international footprint as a significant advantage for real estate professionals and business owners in Australia.

    “REMAX is all over the world, and that’s a real asset to us here, especially as Cairns is a major tourist destination,” he explained.

    “We have visitors from across the globe who instantly recognise the brand. That familiarity gives us an edge.  People see the brand they know and trust, it’s iconic. That global recognition really positions us differently and establishes us as true players within the international market.”

    Widely recognised locally, nationally and internationally for his leadership, vision and commitment to excellence, Tony leads by example, continually evolving, networking and growing his business. Tony has already assembled some dynamic team members to support the rapid re-establishment of the REMAX brand - a solid mix of energy, experience and great values.

    The REMAX Australia network has warmly welcomed Tony back, with REMAX Australia managing director Joel Davoren sharing that Tony’s passion, drive and enthusiasm for not only representing the brand, but the real estate industry itself, is infectious.

    “Tony has always been a fervent and vocal advocate for REMAX, not just locally, but on national and international stages. It’s great to see REMAX Real Estate Services return to Cairns, with Tony at the helm,” said Mr Davoren.

    "REMAX has always had a strong presence in Cairns, and we’re thrilled to see the brand represented once again in this key market.”

    Summing up his decision to rejoin the REMAX network, Tony said it best: “REMAX is bloody good, REMAX is the right choice.”
