Our Story
Throughout the years, one of the Coldwell Banker Howard Perry and Walston’s founders
and today’s sole owner, Don Walston, has always focused on providing exceptional
service to our clients. A commitment to putting the customer first has led to more
than three decades of success and continual expansion. The company has sales offices
across the Triangle, more than 650 sales associates, the Triangle’s leading new
homes and relocation divisions, a mortgage company, title company, insurance company,
an REO division, a concierge division dedicated to home and move related services,
one of North Carolina’s best real estate schools and one of the top real estate
websites in North Carolina.
Even in a normalizing economy, the strength of Coldwell Banker as the most recognizable
national brand in real estate combined with the powerful local presence of Howard
Perry and Walston has allowed CBHPW to continue to grow its market share locally,
regionally and nationally. This growth allows us to provide the very best tools
and resources to our associates so that they can continue the mission this company
was founded on…providing exceptional service to their clients.
Training
Coldwell Banker Howard Perry and Walston’s training program is designed to help
you become productive and successful as quickly as possible in your career. Our
curriculum is delivered to you in phases as you begin and advance your business.
At CBHPW we also believe that there is no better way to learn than to be able to
follow the lead of another great professional. Our mentoring program is a one-of-a-kind
way to learn from the best. From the exceptional training with proven results to
the support services available, we offer unparalleled guidance to our associates.
Technology
Our goal is to keep our associates on the forefront of what they need to know about
new and innovative technology relating to real estate, marketing, social media and
so much more. Our listings filter to over 40 national websites, giving our associates,
and ultimately our sellers, every advantage in selling a property. We offer one-of-a-kind
products like MyAgentOnline and MyHomeOnline, which provide our buyers and sellers
with the technology to monitor the sales activity and marketing of their home, or
to manage their current online home search.
We created HPW.com to be a destination website, where buyers and sellers alike will
continuously visit for information and news about what’s happening in the area.
Another of our innovations is our exclusive HPWtv, featuring films on everything
from landscaping to home staging and design. With 94% of home buyers beginning their
home search online, we recognize that we must empower our associates to be the most
technologically advanced in the Triangle.
Marketing & Advertising
Coldwell Banker Howard Perry and Walston has an expert marketing department to assist
our sales associates. They help insure an integrated and unified company brand,
while establishing a strategic and innovative annual marketing and advertising campaign,
going above and beyond what the competitors provide.
We provide frequent classes, training sessions and weekly messages to our associates
on topics like social media tools, business planning and general and real estate-specific
marketing. We tailor our advertising to speak to the specific needs of buyers and
sellers in the area, incorporating real clients who have had a great experience
with CBHPW.
Real Estate Services
Coldwell Banker Howard Perry and Walston has always believed in putting the client’s
needs first. With so many buyers and sellers seeking all-in-one service, and that
means it’s up to us to provide an array of complete real estate services to suit
their needs.
For example, you don’t have to be a mortgage expert to know where to begin. At Towne
Mortgage of the Carolinas, we give you the tools to make your home financing experience
a success. Our title insurance company, Market Title, protects you against risk
and insures you against loss with the best coverage and service available. CapInsure
Services specializes in property, life, health, auto and commercial insurance. Our
unique free Home Concierge service offers our clients advice on home services to
help them before, during and after the move. American Home Shield is there when
you need them, with home warranties available for any home or budget needs. As the
Triangle’s #1 Real Estate Company, we believe it is our job to protect our customers
in every way we can.
Awards & Events
At CBHPW, we believe in celebrating the accomplishments of our associates. That’s
why every year we host an Awards of Excellence banquet to honor those achieving
success in their business. We distribute annual awards for Top Producers and Rookies
of the Year at both a company and an office level. We also get a chance to experience
the camaraderie of our associates as they celebrate the awards for the best offices.
Another of our annual events honors our Pinnacle Club associates, those associates
who have been with CBHPW for 10 years or more. We start each year with a bang by
hosting an annual Company Meeting, featuring prominent guest speakers and important
topics for associates in the coming year, as well as hosting Sales Rallies throughout
the year.
