REMAX merger with The Real Brokerage clears DOJ HSR waiting period
Shareholder and securityholder approvals remain scheduled for August 14 as the companies move toward closing.
REMAX says the U.S. Department of Justice granted early termination of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act waiting period for its merger with The Real Brokerage, clearing an antitrust procedural hurdle ahead of upcoming votes.
The companies still must obtain the required shareholder and securityholder approvals, which are scheduled for 08/14. With those approvals set for next month, the timeline points to closing in the second half of 2026.
While the HSR waiting period has ended early, REMAX notes the merger is not insulated from future antitrust review. The filing also references that other recent transactions were not reviewed under the HSR process despite later scrutiny in different forums.
