Following the immense success of the brand’s Thursday night gridiron advertising campaign in 2023, Coldwell Banker is returning with a new approach for 2024 that centers around city love

MADISON, N.J., Sept. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC, an Anywhere (NYSE: HOUS) brand, announces the continuation of its award-winning “Dream” ad campaign on Thursday evenings on a streaming service during the 2024 football season, inspiring millions of fans nationwide to envision their future in the cities they’ve always dreamed of calling home.

The new 30-second spots airing this year feature head-to-head matchups of beloved cities – like Dallas v. NYC, DC v. Philly and San Francisco v. Seattle, to name a few – asking the question, “When you’re looking for your next place to live, how do you find the perfect place for you?” Focused on the qualities that make each place unique, the ads encourage viewers to utilize the Coldwell Banker Move Meter tool to compare key selling points between cities, such as cost and quality of living. Helping buyers and sellers make informed decisions with ease, the Move Meter tool is rated the #1 most useful tool in real estate.

Data from the Move Meter shows exactly where Americans are looking to move – between January and August of 2024, the top “Move to” city search was Charlotte, NC, followed by Austin, TX, and New York and Tampa, FL (tied for third).

Coldwell Banker Real Estate holds the honor of having the #1 real estate ad for 12 years in a row by ACE Metrix. Last year, the brand was the second most effective advertiser during this Thursday night gridiron tentpole event out of more than 150 advertisers, demonstrating the impactful connection made with this broad audience.

Also airing as a pre-game integration during the season is the Move Meter Match-Up, a video and social media series comparing cities of the football team matchups each week in real estate terms. The campaign extension further encourages viewers to utilize the brand’s exclusive Move Meter tool on coldwellbanker.com and Coldwell Banker agent websites.

Alongside the ad is a continuation of the localized asset campaign to deepen branding efforts across the network and amplify consumer reach. Local affiliate offices across the vast Coldwell Banker network now have over 100 pieces of customizable marketing materials to craft personalized versions of brand video, social assets and print integration. With nearly 4,000 localized Move Meter Matchup videos created via the brand’s exclusive Custom Video Platform last year, the campaign extension successfully allowed broker-owners to connect with their communities and guide consumers to their dream homes.

In addition to the top YTD cities above, the below cities were the highest searched* “move to” locations amongst Move Meter users in Q1, Q2 and Q3 2024:
