Coldwell Banker Real Estate Gains Ground Internationally

With expansion into international markets like Chile, Paraguay and Saudi Arabia and the affiliation of new international companies, the Coldwell Banker network continues to grow and serve clients across the globe

Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC, a subsidiary of Anywhere Real Estate Inc. (NYSE: HOUS), today announced its international growth momentum in 2023, expanding into three new countries and territories and welcoming 42 international companies as the brand continues to deliver exceptional service to even more consumers worldwide.

Earlier this March, Coldwell Banker Chile announced its official launch after partnering with the brand. Recently expanding to five offices across Chile, managing partners Javier Macchi and Pablo Benchoa have brought a new experience to clients looking to buy, sell or rent in the country’s growing real estate market.

The brand also welcomed Coldwell Banker Paraguay to its international network with the launch of a new franchise in the barrio of Recoleta, Asunción. President of Coldwell Banker Paraguay Sergio Weber has cited the country’s strong economic stability as a solid environment to open its doors and guide people to their dream home and propel brand growth in Paraguay.

In June 2023, Coldwell Banker Island Affiliates announced the renewal of its master franchise agreement with the brand. Across 14 countries and territories – Aruba, the Bahamas, Bermuda, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Dominican Republic, Dominica, Grenada, Jamaica, St. Maarten, St. Lucia, St. Croix, St. Thomas and the Turks and Caicos Islands – master franchise owner JC Calhoun has been guiding consumers with his talented network of 300 agents, backed by the Coldwell Banker brand’s suite of technology, tools and resources.

Most recently, Coldwell Banker announced expansion into Saudi Arabia’s real estate market. In early 2024, Coldwell Banker Saudi Arabia will be joining the brand’s international network with the launch of a new master franchise in the country’s capital of Riyadh. CEO Youssef Khattar is eager to begin offering real estate brokerage and consultancy services to investors, developers and corporations seeking residential and commercial space in the country.
