If you work for or with an employer who has relocating employees, let us help you design, develop and execute a relocation strategy that works best for your organization. Here are helpful answers to questions you may have.

How can Coldwell Banker Bain help me coordinate my employee’s relocation?

As the top relocation brokerage in the Pacific Northwest, at Coldwell Banker Bain we are committed to assisting corporations and organizations with a full range of quality relocation services, including:

• Leading edge home buying and selling resources;
• Access to a national network to help transferees anywhere in the country;
• Certified Relocation Professionals (CRP) to help you develop a relocation policy customized to your company’s economic, cultural, hiring and recruitment needs. Jointly, you will create relocation packages that give your employees the assistance they need for a successful transition. Our personalized service will save you money over the lump-sum alternative that other relocation companies offer.

What home selling and buying services can you offer my employees trying to relocate to Seattle, Washington or the western Washington region?

At CB Bain, our extensive real estate marketing programs will help your relocating employees buy or sell homes quickly and effectively, anywhere in the U.S. By partnering with CB Bain, you will further augment your company’s relocation policy and thus, maximize the home buying and selling opportunities for your employees.

• Your employees will be matched with Western Washington Realtors who are certified in relocation and who specialize in the specific home-buying needs of relocating employees. For example, our CBBain agents can help you find Redmond WA homes for sale or new homes near Bellevue as well.
• We team up with corporate clients and develop home-buying benefits in order to enhance your company’s recruiting efforts.
• Transferees who purchase homes in the greater Seattle, Washington metropolitan area can take advantage of our closing cost benefit. This includes credit at closing, a free home appraisal and discounts in closing services. (These benefits only apply when your relocating employee works with our real estate, mortgage and escrow partners, where applicable.)

Can you help employees relocating to Seattle for work get ready for their move?

Before a move, our Coldwell Banker relocation account managers will help your employee work through the decision-making process that moving to a new area demands. We offer relocation counseling for employees, helping them carefully consider their housing needs and living preferences. Our complimentary relocation packet contains an abundance of community information for your employee.

Can you assist my transferees in getting to know the area?

CB Bain Realtors provide area orientation tours specifically tailored to your transferee and/or potential candidate’s needs. Orientation tours of the Puget Sound area are an excellent opportunity for your transferee to check out neighborhoods and school districts as well as experience the Pacific Northwest region’s cultural activities and entertainment. During the area orientation tour our relocation experts may address housing and rental costs; however, the primary goal of the tour is to educate your transferee on the area’s overall quality of life. We will act as your transferee’s personal tour guide of the Puget Sound.

How can you help my company’s recruiting efforts?

As your corporate relocation affiliate, we will help you promote the Pacific Northwest lifestyle to potential employees. We know how important it is to ease a candidate’s apprehension about a potential relocation. That’s why within 24 hours of an area orientation tour, our corporate relocation account managers will contact you to share the candidates’ first impressions and/or concerns about moving to the Northwest.

Can you also assist transferees who choose to rent instead of buy homes in Washington?

At Coldwell Banker Bain, we offer an array of rental property resources, including active rental listings through our property management division. In addition, we will introduce your transferees to our corporate partners, who will provide them with both free and/or fee-based rental assistance services to find property to rent throughout the Seattle metropolitan area.

Do you also provide assistance for finding temporary housing in the Puget Sound area?

Through our exclusive partnerships, we also provide a variety of options, locations and discounted pricing for corporate employees looking for fully furnished temporary housing options in the greater Puget Sound region. Whether they are waiting for their household items to arrive, or to get the keys to their new Washington home, rest assured that your employees will have somewhere comfortable to stay in the interim.

Can you help my employee with their household moving and/or storage?

From departure to arrival, we can introduce your transferees to respected local and national moving and storage companies for preferred corporate rates. 

Can you help streamline my company’s expense reimbursement and tracking for our transferees?

Our business partners will handle the entire process within IRS guidelines, coordinating everything from gross-up calculations and payroll reports, to reimbursements, expense report auditing and more.

Do you assist with finding spousal employment?

Working in tandem with our professional partners in the destination city – whether it’s Tacoma, Seattle or somewhere in between, we will give your employees’ spouses and domestic partners access to personal career counseling and employee placement assistance.

Do you manage group moves for corporate clients?

Yes, the Coldwell Banker relocation team will help you and your company work through the complex process of a group move.
