Buyers, Sellers Rank Real Estate Companies

Coldwell Banker scored highest on the customer-service rankings among home sellers in the annual J.D Power and Associates 2009 Home Buyer/Seller study. 

The study measures customer satisfaction with the largest national real estate companies. The most significant factor is the buyer/seller experience with the practitioner. Other factors include overall experience with the office and satisfaction with special services offered, like referrals to inspectors and lawyers. Home sellers also rate marketing.

The 2009 Home Buyer/Seller Study includes more than 3,100 evaluations from 2,801 respondents who bought or sold a home between April 2007 and June 2008 

Among the related findings:

  • Home sellers report that, on average, 3.2 open houses were conducted for their property in 2009, compared with 4.5 in 2008.
  • Approximately 64 percent of home sellers used a Web site listing to market their home in 2009, up from 61 percent in 2008.
