Ingersoll, On, January 13, 2014:  RE/MAX a-b Realty Ltd. (Stratford, St. Marys, Woodstock) is excited to announce its merger with Ingersoll Oxford Realty- one of the region’s largest and long standing independent Brokerages.

The existing team is excited about the opportunities that come with belonging to an internationally-recognized brand.  Cathy Dos Santos, Broker of Record for the office feels the alliance will bring substantial benefits to the sales team and clients.  “We have enjoyed a great deal of success as an Independent Brokerage, however with the changing climate of the Real Estate industry we needed to look at what was best for our clients.
