An Evolution of Excellence is a phrase that carries special significance for the Coldwell Banker Commercial® brand. Since 1906, the brand has evolved into one of the country’s leading commercial real estate service providers, serving all markets nationwide. The reputation of Coldwell Banker Commercial affiliates for excellence in client service stems from the system’s founding in San Francisco, California. Coldwell Banker Real Estate Corporation began after the tremendous destruction caused by the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fire. Colbert Coldwell was appalled when he saw some of his real estate contemporaries take advantage of the tragedy by acquiring property from vulnerable sellers at unfair prices. He dedicated himself to providing an honest and knowledgeable alternative. In 1914, Benjamin Arthur Banker became a partner. Together they built a brand based on this philosophy: The client’s best interest must be the guiding force behind all services.
Throughout the 20th century, Coldwell Banker Commercial affiliates have achieved impressive growth by recognizing the benefit of name brand recognition and the value afforded by global resources.
With strong parent companies (Coldwell Banker Real Estate Corporation and Cendant Corporation), Coldwell Banker Commercial affiliates are part of an expansive community that provides them with connections and synergies that allow maximum exposure for their clients through relationships with other Cendant Corporation systems, such as Century 21®, ERA®, Wingate®, Super8®, Knights Inn®, Jackson Hewitt®, Ramada®, Days Inn®, Howard Johnson®, and Avis®.
Mindful of the importance of preserving its legacy and contributing to the Evolution of Excellence, Coldwell Banker Commercial affiliates remain focused on the values that have served their clients well over the years—Integrity. Honesty. Professionalism.
