All sixteen firms are part of the RE/MAX Northern Illinois network.
The 2010 Real Trends 500, an annual report from Real Trends magazine, is a national ranking of the 500 leading real estate offices or office groups with common ownership. The primary ranking is based on prior-year transaction volume, while a second ranking is based on sales volume.
Overall, RE/MAX brokerages led nationwide, holding 122, or 24 percent, of the Top 500 positions, with RE/MAX agents averaging an impressive 14.4 transaction sides each, 45 percent more than any competitor.
The top-ranked RE/MAX organization in northern Illinois was RE/MAX Suburban, which has offices in Arlington Heights, Glen Ellyn, Libertyville, Mt. Prospect, Schaumburg and Wheaton. It was ranked 180th in transactions and 146th in sales volume.

Eight other RE/MAX offices and office groups serving northern Illinois were recognized by Real Trends as “Up and Comers” because they closed at least 500 transactions in 2009. They are: RE/MAX City, Chicago; RE/MAX Signature, Chicago; RE/MAX All Pro, Bloomingdale and Sugar Grove/RE/MAX Great American North, St. Charles; RE/MAX Action, Lisle and Oak Brook; RE/MAX 2000, Crete; RE/MAX Central, Roselle/RE/MAX Central West, West Dundee; RE/MAX Property Source, Rockford, and RE/MAX Realty of Joliet, Joliet.
“The sixteen firms in our network recognized by Real Trends, comprise about one-third of all RE/MAX offices in Northern Illinois, and that underscores the overall productivity of our agents,” said Jim Merrion, regional director of the RE/MAX Northern Illinois real estate network. “Even though the housing market showed signs of recovery in 2009, the residential real estate market remains a challenging environment, yet it is one in which our affiliates were able to succeed thanks to their experience, professionalism and expertise.”
RE/MAX is the leader in northern Illinois real estate sales and has been number one in the metropolitan Chicago real estate market since 1989. In 2009, the RE/MAX network in northern Illinois closed more than $6 billion in sales.
