Does the license granted by a Remax Contractor for Materials survive the termination or expiration of the agreement?

According to the 2025 Remax Franchise Disclosure Document, the obligations of the contractor, as outlined in Paragraph 12 of the agreement, do survive the termination or expiration of the agreement, including any renewals. This encompasses protections for the Remax system, proprietary materials, and Remax marks.

Specifically, upon termination or expiration of the agreement, a Remax contractor must promptly return all proprietary materials to the broker and cease using, copying, or reproducing these materials. The contractor must also clearly differentiate their business from Remax to avoid public confusion and cease using Remax marks on all materials, including websites and social media.

These post-termination obligations are designed to protect Remax's brand and system standards. Remax, LLC is considered a third-party beneficiary and has the right to enforce these provisions directly. This ensures that even after a franchise agreement ends, the contractor cannot leverage Remax's proprietary information or brand recognition for their own advantage, maintaining the integrity of the Remax system.
