The RE/MAX Equity Group Experience
A PASSION FOR THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST
RE/MAX Equity Group | Integrity | Northwest was created to remedy the shortcomings of the classic real estate model. Our offices are a high-energy, collaborative place for agents to work together, and we believe that a team approach benefits both our agents and our clients.
At RE/MAX Equity Group | Integrity | Northwest, we strive to exceed expectations. We think our high quality of service should be the norm in the industry, not the exception. Buying or selling a home can be stressful and time consuming, but no one should feel like they are doing it alone. When you put your trust in us, we work with you to ensure you are satisfied with your home buying or selling experience.
You are starting a new chapter in your life and you should be free to focus on the excitement that comes with it.
Our History
In 1983, the real estate landscape was a tentative one: most of the major players had gone under, sold out, or merged to stay alive. The landscape was bleak, but it did not deter Kurt Dalbey and John Tachouet. On January 16, 1984, The Equity Group, Inc. Realtors opened its doors with a total of six agents and less than 1,000 square feet of office space.
Over the next 16 years, a recovering economy, rapid population growth, and careful planning saw huge gains for the organization. Jim Homolka joined the team, and The Equity Group Realtors expanded, adding ten offices throughout the Portland Metro and SW Washington, and all strategically placed to better serve our agents and community.
On December 11, 2000, The Equity Group Realtors formed a partnership with RE/MAX, LLC to become RE/MAX Equity Group. Our partnership with RE/MAX has given our agents tremendous access to technology and resources designed to enhance the real estate buying and selling business.
Our over 40 year history is a testament to the strength of our people, beliefs, and systems. We've survived and thrived through mortgage crises, a pandemic, housing shortages, and more. Our agents are first-rate, full-time REALTORS and make RE/MAX Equity Group one of the best in the business.

“Your customers don’t care how much you know, until they know how much you care.”

Our Brokers Love What They Do & It Shows
There are many challenging aspects of the real estate industry, and we feel strongly our experienced Brokers can conquer any obstacle. Improving the real estate experience requires more than just tech. It starts at the brokerage level. A brokerage that supports and guides agents positively impacts the agent and client experiences and attracts like-minded agents. We help independent business owners thrive by fostering entrepreneurial development.

Giving Back to Our Community
The RE/MAX Equity Group Foundation is our way of giving back to the communities we serve. Comprised entirely of agents, our Foundation members meet regularly to vote on proposals from local organizations seeking help.
Through 2023, we've given back over $2,195,579 to our surrounding community.
