What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Remax Franchise Disclosure Document, Remax Integrated Regions, LLC does not necessarily appoint an agent for service of process in every state. The FDD includes a list of state agencies or registered agents for service of process, but it specifically notes that if a state is not listed, Remax Integrated Regions, LLC has not appointed an agent in that state for franchise law requirements.
For example, the document lists Indiana, Minnesota, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin with their respective State Administrators and Registered Agents. This implies that these are states where Remax Integrated Regions, LLC has formally appointed an agent for service of process. The contact information for both the State Administrator and Registered Agent are provided for each of these states.
However, the FDD also clarifies that there may be additional states beyond those listed where Remax Integrated Regions, LLC has appointed an agent for service of process. This suggests that the provided list is not exhaustive and that Remax may choose to appoint agents in other states as well. A prospective franchisee should confirm with Remax whether an agent for service of process has been appointed in their specific state.
