Some amazing real estate professionals of today are emerging as the leaders of tomorrow – including three REMAX affiliates in Canada.

Congratulations to Ricky Rathore, Matt Richling and Amar Singh Badh for earning the “2025 Future Leaders in Real Estate” award from Inman – and paving way for what’s next in the real estate industry.

According to Inman, the annual Future Leaders accolade “celebrates the next generation of visionaries who are forging new paths, introducing transformative ideas, and making significant contributions to the evolution of real estate practices.” The award recognizes extraordinary leaders under 40 years old.

Meet the three REMAX affiliates honoured on this year’s list of exceptional real estate leaders:

Ricky Rathore:

As Co-Broker/Owner of RE/MAX Metropolis Realty Brokerage, with locations throughout Ontario, Ricky Rathore is helping hundreds of entrepreneurs thrive. Under Rathore’s leadership, agents at the brokerage have closed thousands of transactions and billions of dollars in sales volume.

With experience as a real estate broker, real estate lawyer and former mortgage professional, Rathore has a diverse skillset that equips him to lead with a forward-thinking vision. In addition to being an esteemed Fellow of the Real Estate Institute, a top designation from the Real Estate Institute of Canada, he formerly earned recognition in the REMAX Hall of Fame, REMAX Presidents Circle, and more.

Matt Richling:

Leading the New Purveyors team with REMAX Hallmark Realty Group in Ottowa, Ontario, Matt Richling is shaping the Canadian real estate scene on local, provincial and national levels. Richling makes a big impact on the industry in his current role as director of the Ottawa Real Estate Board, and he formerly held the position of Chair of Ontario’s Young Professionals Network, too.

His team, comprised of 11 hardworking real estate agents, earned a spot in the REMAX Diamond Club for its high production in 2024.

Amar Singh Badh:

An agent with RE/MAX Real Estate Services in Vancouver, British Columbia, Amar Singh Badh leverages his real estate business to serve the community in a multitude of ways. Committed to making a positive environmental impact at the local level, Badh leads a bold initiative to plant trees after each closed real estate transaction. So far, in the four years he’s been in real estate, more than 15,000 trees and kelp have been planted as a result.

He lends a helping hand in other ways, too, including contributing to the rebuilding of homes for families in Fiji in the wake of natural disasters, and getting involved in other purpose-driven community service efforts. One of these efforts – and something cornerstone to Badh’s REMAX business – is holding the title of REMAX Miracle Agent and supporting Children’s Miracle Network (CMN) Hospitals where he donates money to the BC Children’s Hospital Foundation.

Badh is also one of four honorees in Inman’s “Advocates of Change” subsection of this year’s class of Future Leaders.
