With Thanksgiving just around the corner, I would like to thank all of those who have contributed to the great success Coldwell Banker experienced in 2009. From our wonderful staff, motivated agents and to you, our clients and readers of View magazine, I thank you all for your contributions to a successful 2009. While this year has not been without its serious challenges for the real estate industry, Coldwell Banker continues to be a real estate leader in Orange County, Southern California and beyond.
Part of being a leader is setting a good example. This year, Coldwell Banker offices in Orange County have been hosting food drives for various charities. While many of those programs have completed gathering food for Thanksgiving, it is not too late for you to donate food, your time or money to such wonderful charities as the Second Harvest Food Bank, Orange County Rescue Mission and the We Give Thanks Foundation.
Please take a moment this Thanksgiving to remember those less fortunate and give thanks for what you are fortunate to have.
Whether you can donate your time, food or money here is a list of various charities and their Web sites for you to consider.

Coldwell Banker Ends Another Successful Year
Saturday, December 12th, 2009As 2009 draws to an end, many of us look back to review our successes and challenges that we faced over the year. And, as I look back, I am pleased by what Coldwell Banker has accomplished this year. While we have had many challenges, our accomplishments have made me proud. Here is a summary of our many achievements:
• Launched the new View magazine that reaches over 250,000 readers in Orange County and the Coachella Valley
• Launched the new OCViewOnline.com
• Launched the digital version of View magazine
• Launched our iPhone and Droid real estate search applications
• Finished a variety of agreements that have our listings fed to over 450 Web sites across the nation
• Launched the Coldwell Banker On Location YouTube Channel
• Ranked highest in customer satisfaction nationwide by J.D. Powers & Associates
• Opened a whole new concept office in Huntington Beach that represent the future of real estate
• Completely remodeled our office in Corona del Mar to match our concept office in Huntington Beach
• Maintained our status as a top real estate brokerage in Orange County and the top brokerage in a variety of cities
• Worked with lenders to establish a process to help streamline the often complicated short sale transaction
• Continued to contribute to charitable organizations such as Court Appointed Special Advocates, American Cancer Society and the Second Harvest Food Bank However, what I am most proud of is our associates and employees who have helped thousands of our neighbors buy or sell their homes this year. Without their contributions, none of our successes would have been possible. I look forward with eagerness as to what 2010 holds for our company and the real estate market.
