Coldwell Banker, a top producing real estate company the United States, was founded by Colbert Coldwell and Arthur Banker, has recently celebrated their one hundredth birthday. That fact alone says a great deal about the company and its sales associates. It takes tenacity and determination to start a business, but it takes much more than that to stay in business for the long haul. Outstanding customer service coupled with a track record of high sales, volume of listings, and growing technological services have ensured the continued success of this home selling giant.

Coldwell Banker holds many of the country's finest agents and brokers, drawing to their company those looking to enter the real estate business with an eye for success. New agents are drawn to them as well as agents from other companies who are looking for a supportive network of realtors to join up with. Coldwell Banker provides extensive continued education and support for their agents via their website, conference calls, and seminars, as well as printed and video material. Their agents and brokers are encouraged to excel and exceptional customer service is insisted upon.

Coldwell Banker offers two services in particular that are unique to them alone and provide a great value to their clientele. These are the Buyer Services and the Seller Service Guarantee.

The Seller Service Guarnatee provides that as soon as the seller lists their property and until it sells, Coldwell Banker will take care of many of the minor repair and upkeep tasks that come up. It also states that sellers are guaranteed help with many other areas, such as finding any necessary contractors and/or home inspection assistance, extensive advertising in both periodicals and on the world wide web, and pricing guidance.

The Buyer Services provide the new home owner with lifetime free home repairs for many items. Coldwell Banker has contractors on staff that are paid a salary. These are reputable men and women who are just waiting for a call out to a home for a service. They often will go above and beyond even what the contract states that they will do.

You don't have to look far or long to find the name Coldwell Banker on a sign. Most people can even picture the blue and white logo without thinking too hard. That is because Coldwell Banker holds a huge market share of the listings in this country. More listings equal more calls to their offices which equate to more potential buyers for your home. This gives them, and you as a buyer or seller, a huge advantage over the competition. When the final goal is to buy or sell a home, Coldwell Banker should be your first call!
