The executive changes at RE/MAX continue. On Tuesday, RE/MAX Holdings, the parent company of RE/MAX and Motto Mortgage, announced it was welcoming Travis Saxton as its new executive vice president of strategy.
According to the release, Saxton will be tasked with guiding “real estate strategy and technology innovation with a focus on integrating solutions to optimize operations and support affiliate growth.”
“I’m excited to join RE/MAX Holdings and collaborate with such a talented and passionate group of leaders,” Saxton said in a statement. “I’ve had the privilege of working with RE/MAX brokerages and teams over the years, and I have always been impressed by the entrepreneurial spirit of the network and the Company’s commitment to innovation. My goal is to help bring even more intelligent, strategic change to the Company, ensuring that we leverage the power of technology to maximize business outcomes for everyone in our network.”
Saxton has over two decades of experience working in residential real estate technology, digital marketing and management consulting. He most recently served as the executive vice president of enterprise solution at T3 Sixty. Prior to this he held executive positions at RealTrends and BombBomb.
“Travis is a major addition to the team,” Erik Carlson, CEO of RE/MAX Holdings, said in a statement. “His technology experience and deep understanding of real estate operations will be invaluable as we continue to execute our vision for the Company. Directly or indirectly, his knowledge, insights and forward-thinking mentality will help shape our systems and offerings across all our brands.”
In addition to Saxton’s hiring, RE/MAX recently announced it would be hiring Chris Lim as its chief growth officer, as well as the departure of Amy Lessinger as the president of RE/MAX. The company is currently looking for someone to fill that position. In the interim, Carlson is serving as president.
