Q: What are your thoughts on RE/MAX? I had initiated a position a couple years ago right before the class action losses and settlements related to the broker fees (so I'm down about 50%).
Most of their cash will be paid towards the settlements once the appeals are done, but it's already recorded as a payable so there shouldn't be a material impact to earnings once it's paid (although that cash will be gone).
Do you think now is a good time to add (assuming we get an eventual upturn in the cycle) or do you think new money is still better deployed elsewhere in the markets?
