Coldwell Banker Bain’s history started when William A. Bain began his career in the real estate industry in 1950. Bain had a dream to build a real estate company that focused on luxury and serviced discerning clientele. This dream became a reality with the launch in 1972 of a company known today as Coldwell Banker Bain. Coldwell Banker Bain has been rooted in the luxury market since its inception and continues in that tradition today, spanning multiple branches in major cities along the I-5 corridor, from Bellingham, WA, south to Bend, OR.
