MADISON, N.J., Oct. 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC, a subsidiary of Anywhere Real Estate Inc.

Prior to his time as president and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Northwest Real Estate and Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Real Estate Professionals, Waugh served in multifaceted roles within the industry including COO, office manager, brokerage owner, regional sales manager, and sales agent. The positions ensure Waugh’s inherent insight into every aspect of the business. Prior to his time in real estate, Waugh was a partner at Synergy Sports Management. He received his BA and Juris Doctorate from Pepperdine University and Pepperdine University School of Law.

"I am elated to serve as steward of the Coldwell Banker brand, the legendary North Star of the real estate industry," said Waugh. "I am confident that my expertise has positioned me well to enable our broker owner affiliates and their agents to rapidly achieve their business goals now and long into the future. Coldwell Banker has been leading the industry for more than 117 years. I look forward to ensuring our brand leads the industry for future generations to come and delivers the quality services that our customers enjoy."

In April 2023, Kamini Lane was tapped to lead Coldwell Banker Realty, the Anywhere company-owned Coldwell Banker brokerage organization, which includes a network of 55,000 agents.
