Coldwell Banker

Coldwell Banker provides a branded real estate brokerage system for offices that serve home buyers and sellers across the United States. We offer residential real estate brokerage services under the Coldwell Banker® name, and we also support commercial real estate offices through Coldwell Banker Commercial®. Our offices use our trademarks, marketing tools, referral procedures, training, lead management, and business support resources to help brokers and agents run their local businesses. We work with established brokerage operators and, in some markets, newly formed brokerages that operate from a main office and approved branch or limited-purpose locations. We also offer specialty positioning such as Coldwell Banker Global Luxury® for offices focused on luxury properties and clients.
