Realogy Among 2013 World’s Most Ethical Companies

For the second consecutive year, we are proud to share with you that Realogy has been recognized among the World’s Most Ethical Companies. This recognition highlights companies that outperform their industry peers for ethical conduct.  

We strive to set the standard for ethical conduct in our industry, and we are humbled by
this recognition from Ethisphere Institute, the gold standard in advancing the social and corporate significance of ethical conduct.  
Our award was presented last night during Ethisphere’s 2013 Honoree Dinner, and we were proud to accept it on behalf of all of our employees. You should take pride in this recognition since each of you is individually charged with the responsibility for ethical behavior, and it is clear that you take this responsibility seriously.

As we look ahead to building on our strong ethical foundation, we continue to advance the cause throughout all aspects of our business -including our business partners, vendors, suppliers and our industry.

Congratulations to all and thank you for upholding our high standards in every aspect of your responsibilities.

Coldwell Banker | We Believe


SHARE

Earlier today Coldwell Banker released its 2013 ad campaign dubbed “We Believe.” The “We Believe” campaign, which officially debuts this weekend during the Grammy’s, focuses on real estate as our higher calling. Because as the ad points out, our home is truly our castle and as real estate professionals, our calling in life is to find the home that is perfect for our clients.

As you will see, the ad campaign centers around the theme “We Believe.” We believe in home and all the magical things that come with it. We believe in real estate and all the benefits it can provide. We believe in what a home can do to help a person or family grow and succeed in life. We believe in the communities where we work, live and play. We believe that there should always be an emotional part of the real estate equation, while never ignoring the rational side. We believe in the true value of a home (as wonderfully showcased in our 2012 television ad campaign). And we believe more than ever that a home is really your castle and we celebrate all the memories and experiences that make it so.

We hope you’ll notice the music, “Home,” which was performed by Phillip Phillips, winner of last year’s American Idol. The song is the perfect tie in to what we do each and every day and positions Coldwell Banker well on tap with current trends. This is an ad campaign that we can all truly believe in.

Plus, be sure to tune into the Grammy’s this weekend as we watch Coldwell Banker’s big debut on music’s most watched award event.
