An Excerpt from "House of Hearthside"

The real estate market is constantly changing, and Hearthside has shouldered it all, from the booming market of the past few years, to the rise of interest rates and a market dip. Through it all, but especially in a market downturn, Jamie and Robin keep their finger on the heart of their business: the people. Coldwell Banker has been around for 100 years, and the Mancuso’s Hearthside franchise celebrates three decades of life. With a business’s longevity comes trust and respect, both with potential clients but also among realtors. Beyond history in the community, the Mancusos pride themselves on their commitment to innovation, adaptability and creativity. “You come to Coldwell Banker Hearthside if you want to grow. We are not the company for you if you want to be status quo”, says Jamie.

One of their greatest struggles is the perception that Hearthside isn’t locally owned and operated, which it is. As a franchise, the Mancusos believe they have the best of both worlds. They benefit from the name and experience behind the global business of Coldwell Banker, as well as the leadership and mentorship from senior industry leaders. As a locally owned and operated franchise, they also have the ability to remain flexible to the needs of the community and the individual business.

Becoming a successful realtor requires more than just a license. Jamie coaches agents. There is a reason some of the top-producing realtors and teams in PA and NJ choose Hearthside. “For our competitors,” said Jamie, “you sink or swim on your own. Here we are family first. It's different. You have to buy into the system which also means you can call us 24/7 and we celebrate your successes.”
