Coldwell Banker Residential Team Ranked Among Top 30 in the Nation

Dec. 12, 2011 - PRLog -- Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage’s The Harwood Group which operates out of its own office in the Village of Rancho Santa Fe has yet another accolade to stack onto its already impressive trophy case. The Harwood Group has been ranked 30th among the top real estate teams in the U.S. according to a new list by The Wall Street Journal/Real Trends, Inc.

The Harwood Group carved an impressive notch high up on the Journal’s Top 250 list thanks in part to Doug and Orva’s combined 60 plus years of real estate experience in the San Diego region. The Harwood Group is a regular on the Journal’s list, having cracked the Top 50 for the past four years. Additionally, the team has been Coldwell Banker’s No. 1 group in all of San Diego County since 2005.  

“The Harwood Group’s success is a direct reflection of the team’s commitment to their clients’ needs,” said Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage-Rancho Santa Fe Manager Steve Salinas. “Through their 60 combined years, they have truly seen it all and our clients have benefitted greatly from that immeasurable experience.”

The Harwood Group has its fingerprints on some of the largest real estate transactions affecting San Diego. Recent highlights include Orva Harwood having closed the highest priced property in Solana Beach this summer, and Doug Harwood who recently closed the largest residential land deal for 2011 in North County. Additionally, Doug has a $29M spectacular oceanfront listing in Carlsbad – currently the third highest priced listing in San Diego County.

With 29 agents, The Harwood Group is deeply involved in the community. Among the many projects the team is currently involved in are the Rachel Women’s Center in San Diego, working with children and adults with cognitive delays and disabilities, Project Concern International, providing food to the homeless at the St. Vincent DePaul Center, being on the board of Directors from Hugs 4 Kids and Kids Korp USA, president of the RSF Lacrosse team, liaison for the Torrey Pines High School football team, and a commitment by all of the agents to their local schools.
