The Van Ness office of Coldwell Banker Northern California
is the company's premier office in the Bay Area. In fact,
it has the third highest volume of Coldwell Banker's 700 nationwide
offices.
Also known as TRI Coldwell Banker, the Van Ness office finds
its unique roots in TRI Real Estate, a company formed in the
early 1980's by a collection of broker/owners. The office
evolved over time to its present size of 92 agents. In the
early nineties the residential and commercial business components
of the original company were split and the residential division
was sold to Prudential, and then again a few years later to
Jon Douglas. Coldwell Banker acquired Jon Douglas and the
Van Ness office in September 1997, and the office has consistently
performed at the highest level of the company's 70 northern
California offices.
Located on Van Ness Avenue at Sacramento Street, the office
effectively serves all districts of the City Pacific and Presidio
Heights, Russian, Telegraph and Nob Hills, the Marina, Cow
Hollow, and the Lake Street corridor to Sea Cliff. In the
northern quadrant, the Van Ness Office's market share of million
dollar homes and condominiums dominates the competition year
after year. Volume and participation charts are included which
demonstrate the office's success and market position.
Agents in the Van Ness office serve all districts of the
City. The office has a commercial group, a rental department,
and a new construction group which services SOMA and other
developing areas of the City.
The office's preeminent success is attributable to a number
of components. "Synergy" is one. The average tenure
in the business for a Van Ness office agent is over twenty
years. That type of experience is accompanied with finely
honed professionalism, knowledge, skill, integrity, credibility,
and a highly regarded clientele. The interaction of 92 agents
with such attributes generates an exciting, successful environment.
"Network" is another word that defines the office's
success. The large network of Coldwell Banker offices from
San Diego to Seattle and from San Francisco to New York, in
particular "Previews Specialists" connects agents
and clients in an unparalleled fashion.
Finally, the "toolbox" available is unequalled
in the industry. The agent's toolbox consists of the equipment,
staff, marketing and other services that enable the agent
to successfully represent our clientele. From award winning
Internet sites, local and international advertising, the resources
to stage a property or solve a complex issue affecting ownership,
no one can market your property better than the team of agents
in the Van Ness office.
