In Real Estate
At Coldwell Banker Village Green, our primary focus is the service we offer sellers.

Our marketing plan is unique, multi-faceted, and, most important, effective. Coldwell Banker offers the most powerful marketing platform in real estate. As a Coldwell Banker affiliate we leverage that platform, using all the marketing tools and venues open to us through Coldwell Banker. Because we are the local experts in Hudson Valley and Catskills home sales we've expanded Coldwell Banker's platform with websites, social channels, email marketing and digital advertising of our own that specifically targets Hudson Valley and Catskills buyers. We believe in investing in the staff we need to provide what we know is best-in-class marketing for the sellers who entrust us with their properties. We're one of the few brokerages in the region with a dedicated marketing staff. There's no question in our minds that we are the best real estate company to list your home or property in The Hudson Valley and Catskills region.
Coldwell Banker's Average Sale Price Is 20% Higher Than The National Average
The power of our marketing platform plays out in the bottom line - sale price.
Why do Coldwell Banker homes sell for more? It's the care we take with our marketing - the professional photos, the carefully crafted descriptions edited by professional writers, the cutting edge 3D tours that immerse a buyer in your home - no matter where they are in the world - the unique content we create for social media, email and direct marking, as well as this website. We create quality marketing and buyers associate that quality with the homes we list. Buyers are willing to pay more for a home they believe is of a higher quality than others on the market.

Marketing Manpower
Marketing requires dedicated effort. Our full-time marketing staff of 9 work with our agents from the moment you sign a listing agreement with Coldwell Banker Village Green. First, one of our photographers will visit your home and capture photos and a 3D model. Members of our marketing team will take those assets and craft compelling and descriptive copy for your home. The photos, tour and copy will be used for website listings, email marketing, direct-mail pieces, social posts, and digital advertisements. When your listing launches on Zillow.com, Trulia.com, Realtor.com and other important real estate sites, our marketing team reviews them for accuracy and corrects inconsistencies. While your agent is busy fielding inquiries and showing your home, our marketing team keeps on marketing.
Our local marketers work closely with the marketers at Coldwell Banker corporate, sharing unique properties and capitalizing on the PR opportunities inherent in being the Coldwell Banker affiliate in a market that's consistently in the national spotlight.
Striking Marketing Assets
How do we express the value of your home to potential buyers? With beautiful marketing assets. The quality and colors of property photos impact a buyer's first impression. The look and feel of email marketing influences how a buyer feels about your home and its location. A pretty take-away flyer on your kitchen counter gives a visiting buyer a material reminder of your home. These small details are as important to us as they are to you! When it comes to listing marketing, we sweat the small stuff.
Coldwell Banker recently underwent a global re-brand, modernizing our look and allowing us to create marketing materials for our listings that are attractive to today's buyers, suited to on-line advertising, and perfect for those who are looking to make the Upstate lifestyle theirs.
Coldwell Banker Global Luxury
The Coldwell Banker Global Luxury program offers an impressive global stage from which to showcase your home.
The Global Luxury marketing program includes specialized marketing pieces, a luxury-only website with an international audience and listing syndication to websites frequented by affluent homebuyers including The Wall Street Journal, Barron's, and Mansion Global.

A Referral Network Like No Other
100,000 Agents in 41 Countries
One agent working hard to sell your home is an agent in your corner, a team of agents in an office working to sell your home is an extra little boost, a network of 100,000 Coldwell Banker agents working to sell your home - that's something else entirely.
Coldwell Banker was built on collaboration. We share our listings in closed social groups just for CB agents, on platforms CB has built so we can work together, and through our partnership with Brooklyn and Manhattan-based CB Reliable.
We don't stop with Coldwell Banker agents. We also promote our listings to a referral network of over 10,000 NYC Metro area agents built over 3 decades of collaboration.
Rapid Response
Just as important as the impressive exposure the Coldwell Banker Marketing Platform provides is the speed at which interested buyers receive a response from an agent who can answer their questions. Our exclusive Lead Router system delivers buyer inquiries directly to agents' cell phones so they can respond immediately with one click.
Selling Your Property Virtually
95% of Homebuyers Used The Internet To Search Homes in 2021
The way homebuyers find the home they buy has changed drastically over the past 15 years. In 2021 95% of homebuyers used the internet to search for homes, even those who were actively working with a real estate agent! Homebuyers "looked" at a median of 8 homes in 2021, three of those homes were viewed online only. For years the number of homebuyers who purchased a home they saw in a newspaper or magazine advertisement has been below 1% and in 2021 only 7% used print advertisements as a resource at all.
At Coldwell Banker Village Green Realty we focus our considerable efforts where the buyers are - the internet.
3 Exclusive Websites

A 24 Hour Virtual Open House
Life moves pretty fast - so does real estate. Buyers want home shopping to be efficient. They decide whether to visit a house based on the online listing. Some buy a house without ever stepping inside. They're looking for the maximum amount of information on a home in the minimum amount of time - they might miss out on a great new listing because they don't have time to drive to see it today. But they do have time to visit a virtual open house while they wait in line for coffee. With our Matterport 3D space capture we offer buyers the opportunity to walk through our listings, 24/7, from the comfort of their couch, the train, or the coffee shop.
Our Matterport 3D camera captures every corner of a home, allowing buyers to take a full tour. They experience everything except the smell of freshly baked cookies. It's efficient for sellers too. Casual buyers can now view your house online and satisfy their curiosity - you'll prep your home for showings with serious buyers only.
Social Media Marketing
Our social network is vast. With over 670,000 followers, 10 million yearly engagements, and 10 social channels, social media is a big part of our marketing strategy.
Like many brokerages, we use our social channels to post our listings and interact with buyers, but we also use social networks as advertising venues. Using powerful digital tools, we create powerful digital marketing. With Adwerx, we generate automated social advertising that launches when we add a listing to the MLS. Our listings then follow likely buyers around the internet, appearing on facebook, instagram and sites they visit every day. Another tool, Social Ad Engine, allows us to create multiple photo and video ads that generate buyer leads from instagram and facebook at far above industry average and deliver them directly to your agent's cell phone.

Email Marketing
Over 52 million people visit our websites every year. We turn those one-time website visitors into buyers by delivering our listings directly to their inboxes, even if they don't return to the site regularly. Our sites track a buyer's interest in properties, when a new listing comes on the market that matches their interests, the site emails them instantly.
We understand that buyers in the Hudson Valley and Catskills are just as interested in the lifestyle and landscape of the region as they are in house style and price range. Our marketing team creates a monthly e-newsletter filled with community events, information, stories about living the Upstate lifestyle and listings and delivers it to over 80,000 subscribers.
Unique Listing Information
Houses have a story to tell. MLS listings only tell part of that story. We believe in telling the full tale.
There's a reason the property information on most real estate websites is all the same - the sites are pulling listing details directly from MLS. On VillageGreenRealty.com we have the opportunity to tell the full story with our enhanced listings and blog features; if your home is novel-worthy or it's impossible to do it justice with just 20 or 30 photos - we can do more.
Proven. Powerful. Personal.
