Celebrating a Legacy of Giving: International Week of Giving 2025

Fri, 01 Aug 2025 18:54:58 +0000

Each year, as we mark the CENTURY 21^® brand anniversary, we also celebrate something even more meaningful—our commitment to giving back. What began as a single day of service has grown into a powerful tradition: International Week of Giving (IWOG). Now in its fourth year, IWOG has become a cornerstone of brand culture, a time when the network unites to uplift communities, support causes that matter, and lead with heart.

This year, we’re proud to spotlight some extraordinary examples of that spirit in action .as our franchise leaders are recognized for their tireless commitment to improving lives across their communities:

CENTURY 21 Cityside Honored by Easterseals Massachusetts

On March 28, 2025, CENTURY 21 Cityside was recognized as one of three honorees at the Easterseals Massachusetts Empowerment Celebration, held at the Microsoft NERD Center in Cambridge, MA. This annual event honors leaders who have made a lasting impact on the disability community by championing inclusion and equal opportunity.

The Team Hoyt Award was presented to CENTURY 21 Cityside and the Bray family for their decade-long dedication to Easterseals’ mission. With Collin Bray serving as Vice-Chair of the State Board of Directors, the Bray family has been instrumental in expanding access to life-changing programs and advocating for individuals with disabilities to live, learn, work, and play with dignity and independence.

Their recognition is a testament to what happens when business and purpose walk hand in hand.

Fernando Semiao Receives the Easterseals NJ Good Samaritan Award

As part of its annual recognition of community champions, Easterseals New Jersey presented the Good Samaritan Award to Fernando Semiao, Broker/Owner of CENTURY 21 Semiao & Associates in Lyndhurst, NJ. This award honors individuals who demonstrate exceptional commitment to improving the lives of people with disabilities.

A part of the C21 brand for nearly 30 years, CENTURY 21 Semiao & Associates has been a long-standing supporter of Easterseals NJ helping to expand access to vital services for nearly 9,000 individuals across the state. His advocacy and generosity have empowered children and adults with disabilities to live more independently and participate fully in their communities. From charity events to company-wide fundraising drives, the brokerage has raised more than $130,000 for Easterseals NJ throughout its decades long commitment. The Good Samaritan Award is a reflection of Fernando’s belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive—and his actions continue to make that vision a reality.

Jim D’Amico Receives the Northeast Association of REALTORS^® Good Neighbor Award

In recognition of his dedication to community service, CENTURY 21 Integra Broker Owner Jim D’Amico has been awarded the Good Neighbor Award by the Northeast Association of REALTORS^®. This prestigious honor celebrates REALTORS^® who go above and beyond in service to their communities. Jim was recognized for his humanitarian work in creating sober living spaces—safe, supportive environments for men rebuilding their lives. His leadership reminds us that real estate is about more than property—it’s about people, second chances, and building a better future for all.

Earlier this month, after catastrophic flooding struck Texas’s Hill Country, Jim D’Amico transformed CENTURY 21 Integra’s local offices into supply hubs, mobilizing agents to collect and distribute essentials. Within a day of launching a fundraiser through his nonprofit Fresh Start, he raised $5,000, pledged a $25,000 match, and set a goal of $100,000—all going directly to those affected. Jim’s actions continue to show that being a good neighbor means showing up—especially when it matters most.

Giving Is Who We Are

These recognitions aren’t just accolades—they’re reflections of our values. They show the world what we already know: our network leads with generosity, compassion, and purpose.

For 46 years, the CENTURY 21 System has stood behind Easterseals’ mission to uplift individuals with disabilities. With $141 million raised to date, the C21 network continues to lead with purpose.

As we celebrate another year of IWOG, we’re reminded that giving isn’t just something we do—it’s who we are. Join us in making a difference: easterseals.com/c21giving

CENTURY 21 REAL ESTATE TO HOST FOURTH ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL WEEK OF GIVING CELEBRATING NETWORK-WIDE PHILANTHROPIC EFFORTS

dmckenna — Mon, 21 Jul 2025 16:00:00 +0000

MADISON, N.J. (Jul 21, 2025) — Century 21 Real Estate LLC, a subsidiary of Anywhere Real Estate Inc. (NYSE: HOUS), today announced the launch of its fourth annual International Week of Giving, a global initiative that unites the CENTURY 21® System in a shared mission to give back to the communities they serve. Leveraging the brand’s multiyear Major League Soccer (MLS) partnership, this year’s campaign kicks off with a special charity spotlight moment during halftime of the 2025 MLS All-Star Game on Wednesday, July 23 in Austin, TX, highlighting the brand’s enduring commitment to philanthropy and community impact.

During the week of July 28 – August 1, the global real estate brand will showcase CENTURY 21 independent brokerages from around the globe and their fundraising events and service activities to support causes that matter most to affiliated agents and local communities — including housing access, food insecurity, disaster relief, education, health, and environmental sustainability. The CENTURY 21 International Week of Giving will be highlighted via #C21WithYou social media campaign across the brand’s owned channels and those of its franchisees throughout the week.

“Real estate is about more than just property — it’s about people,” said Mike Miedler, President and CEO of Century 21 Real Estate LLC. “The International Week of Giving is a powerful reflection of our network’s dedication to making a difference. Whether it’s through work with Easterseals, a national nonprofit organization, local food drives or charity events, the brokers and agents affiliated with the CENTURY 21 brand continue to show up for their communities in meaningful ways.”

A Legacy of Impact with Easterseals

A cornerstone of the brand’s philanthropic efforts is its 46-year relationship with Easterseals, one of the nation’s leading disability and community services organizations. In 2024 alone, the CENTURY 21 System raised more than $2.6 million for Easterseals, bringing its lifetime total to $141 million.

“Through our network of Affiliates, Easterseals provides disability and community services across the country, from early childhood education to job training for veterans,” said Kendra Davenport, President and CEO, Easterseals. “Our 46-year relationship with the CENTURY 21 brand helps make this work possible, leveraging their global network of affiliated real estate brokers and agents to raise millions of dollars for community-based services supporting people with disabilities. This kind of long-term commitment makes a real difference – for Easterseals and the communities we serve.”

“This collaboration is more than a tradition — it’s a testament to the values we share,” said Greg Sexton, COO of Century 21 Real Estate and a member of the Easterseals National Board of Directors. “I am so proud of the dedicated efforts of the CENTURY 21 Network’s members as they not only raise money but drive awareness for the important work of this remarkable organization. Over the last few years, I have had the privilege of working more closely with the Easterseals team to create synergies that elevate the organization’s impact to more than 1.5 million people served by Easterseals each year. Together, we’re helping to build a more inclusive world where people of all abilities can thrive.”

MLS All-Star Game: A New Stage for Giving

This year, the CENTURY 21 brand will elevate its message of giving on a national stage by hosting a special charity moment during halftime at the 2025 MLS All-Star Game on Wednesday, July 23^rd at Q2 Stadium. One special match attendee will have the chance to score a goal on the All-Star pitch and help the CENTURY 21 brand deliver a $50,000 donation to Easterseals. Greg Sexton will be accompanied on the field by Easterseals President and CEO Kendra Davenport and local Easterseals program beneficiaries whose lives have been impacted through Easterseals services.

Trailblazing with Maria Caivano

Fri, 20 Jun 2025 18:48:53 +0000

Behind every successful real estate agent is a mentor who believed in them—and few embody that role better than Maria Caivano. As the Director of Agent Development at CENTURY 21 Thomson & Co., Maria has turned her passion for teaching into a powerhouse of agent transformation. With a career rooted in mentorship and a heart for helping others grow, she’s not just shaping agents—she’s shaping futures. In this first feature of our CENTURY 21® Mentor Series, we dive into Maria’s journey, her approach to agent development, and the wisdom she shares with those ready to rise in real estate.

From Rookie of the Year to Trusted Mentor

Maria’s journey in real estate began in 2005, guided by a mentor who left a lasting impression. “I did everything she told me to do and became ‘Rookie of the Year,’” Maria recalls. “At the time, I didn’t realize what an accomplishment that was, but now I look back with pride. That experience shaped my understanding of what a mentor should be.”

With a background in education, Maria naturally gravitated toward mentorship. “Teaching is in my DNA,” she says. “Helping others succeed is just who I am.”

What Makes a Great Mentor?

At CENTURY 21 Thomson & Co., mentor isn’t just a title—it’s a responsibility. Maria and her team carefully select mentors who are not only experienced and consistent in their production but also calm under pressure and committed to servant leadership. “We match mentors and mentees based on personality and background,” she explains. “It’s about creating a connection that fosters growth.”

The Impact of Thomson Trailblazers

In 2024, Maria launched Thomson Trailblazers, a development program designed to accelerate agent growth. The results? A staggering 137% increase in production among participants. “It’s one of the things I’m most proud of,” she says. The seven-week program blends productivity coaching with hands-on business development—covering everything from website optimization and client presentations to expert-led sessions with top agents and industry professionals. By the end, agents leave with a complete, actionable toolkit to elevate their business.

WATCH: Patricia Green on how the Thomson Trailblazers program helped her stand out and succeed with CENTURY 21 Thomson & Co.

The Blueprint for Agent Success

Maria believes that success in real estate starts with the right mindset and habits. “A great agent needs tenacity, a strong work ethic, and a willingness to conquer their fears,” she says. “They must be active listeners and genuinely want to help others.”

To build confidence, agents are encouraged to:

Practice scripting for client conversations
Stay informed by previewing listings and attending broker opens
Check the MLS daily
Participate in company learning events

“Knowledge of the market brings confidence,” Maria emphasizes. “And confidence builds trust.”

Tailored Onboarding for Every Agent

Maria’s approach to onboarding varies depending on the agent’s experience. For seasoned professionals, the focus is on integration—getting them connected with company systems and supporting their existing methods. For new agents, it’s all about foundational training.

“Our onboarding team introduces new agents to tools like the MLS, Supra e-key, and 21online.com,” she explains. “We help them set up their MoxiWebsite^®, upload contacts, and establish a digital presence. Then I step in with CENTURY 21 training and ongoing learning opportunities.

WATCH: Mark Tenenbaum, agent affiliated with CENTURY 21 Thomson & Co. shares how the Thomson Trailblazers program gave him the confidence, tools, and clarity to better connect with clients—and take action right away.

Navigating Today’s Challenges

Maria is candid about the hurdles agents face today. “Inventory is tight due to low interest rates from 2020–2022, and new agents often underestimate how hard this business is,” she says. “The biggest challenge is doing the unglamorous work—making calls, following up, staying consistent.”

To support agents, CENTURY 21 Thomson & Co. partners with outside companies that provide local market insights and lead generating ideas. “This isn’t an easy business,” Maria admits, “but if you stay focused and do the daily work, you will succeed.”

Looking Ahead

As the industry evolves, Maria sees both challenges and opportunities. “Technology is changing how buyers and sellers access information,” she notes. “Agents will always be necessary, but we must adapt. There may also be a shift back to traditional brokerages as agents seek better support and higher splits.”

For her own growth, Maria plans to expand her networking in 2025. “I want to connect with other brokers and managers to share best practices,” she says.

Final Advice for New Agents

Maria’s message to new agents is simple but powerful:

“Come into the office. Join workshops and seminars. Learn from the best. Be flexible and open to change. And remember—your client is not a transaction. Clients are people you build relationships with for years to come.”

CENTURY 21 REAL ESTATE AND INSTITUTE FOR LUXURY HOME MARKETING LAUNCH COLLABORATION WITH NEW Q1 2025 LUXURY MARKET REPORT

dmckenna — Thu, 01 May 2025 16:00:00 +0000

MADISON, N.J. (May 1, 2025) — Century 21 Real Estate LLC, a subsidiary of Anywhere Real Estate Inc. (NYSE: HOUS), today announced a new collaboration with The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing to help its network of affiliated real estate sales professionals elevate their business within the highly-competitive luxury market. This new association will give agents affiliated with the CENTURY 21^® brand access to best-in-class luxury courses, as well as exclusive Institute Member Benefits, from local luxury market reports to wealth insights, to marketing tools designed to attract upper-tier home buyers and sellers.

The two industry-leading brands are kicking off their relationship with the unveiling of the Q1 2025 Luxury Market Report, the first co-branded quarterly report highlighting the most impactful market data to help affluent buyers and sellers make informed real estate decisions. According to the report, there was strong momentum in the first quarter of 2025 with a cautious but strengthening tone and signs of renewed engagement from both home buyers and sellers.

A few key highlights from the Q1 report on luxury homes* include:

STEADILY INCREASING INVENTORY: Compared to 2024, inventory in the first quarter of 2025 increased by 26.3% for single-family homes and 27.3% for condominiums and townhomes.
GROWING CONSUMER CONFIDENCE DRIVING SALES: Compared to 2024, sales in the first quarter of 2025 increased by 9.4% for single-family homes and 2.4% for condominiums and townhomes.
HOMEBUYERS IN FOR THE LONG-HAUL: Moving away from short-term gains and “flips”, most transactions were anchored in long-term goals such as relocation, upsizing, or the acquisition of secondary homes.

While industry professionals and consumers continue to keep a close eye on macroeconomic factors such as interest rate policy, geopolitical developments and insurance trends, core demands in this sector remain intact.

“The idea of luxury real estate continues to evolve for today’s affluent buyers – it is not limited to a specific price point, but more of a mindset and lifestyle they are looking to attain,” said Tori Keichinger, Vice President, Head of Marketing for Century 21 Real Estate LLC. “Understanding the trends that shape this sector will be key to helping agents guide clients to make informed decisions along their real estate journeys. We couldn’t think of a more perfect collaborator than The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing to help agents affiliated with the CENTURY 21^® brand do just that as they continue to expand their businesses into the luxury sector.”

With over 4,200 luxury home specialists working across more than 900 CENTURY 21 Fine Homes & Estates® designated offices*, the CENTURY 21 brand is no stranger to navigating the nuances of luxury home buying and selling needs across the country. As part of its recently enhanced CENTURY 21 Fine Homes & Estates program, the CENTURY 21 brand and The Institute will co-host a series of live-stream learning courses throughout the year led by two experienced luxury agents who are leading their respective markets when it comes to high-end real estate – Sarah Gunnip, CENTURY 21 Mike Bowman, Inc. and Laura Heigl, CENTURY 21 Scheetz.

“We are very excited to forge this new relationship with the CENTURY 21 brand. Not only are they providing their affiliated agents access to the latest data on the luxury market, but we’ll be working together to provide them with The Institute’s best-in-class courses and luxury agent tools, all delivered by CENTURY 21 network leaders,” said Diana Weir, Head of The Institute.

CENTURY 21 SYSTEM MEMBERS CONTINUE LEGACY OF LEADERSHIP IN HISPANIC HOMEOWNERSHIP WITH INSTALLATION OF ORALIA HERRERA AS 2025 NAHREP PRESIDENT

dmckenna — Tue, 01 Apr 2025 16:00:00 +0000

MADISON, N.J. (Apr 1, 2025) — Century 21 Real Estate LLC, a subsidiary of Anywhere Real Estate Inc. (NYSE: HOUS), is proud to celebrate the appointment of Oralia Herrera, Broker/Owner of CENTURY 21 TK Realty Inc., as the 2025 National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals^® (NAHREP^®) President. Herrera’s installation at the NAHREP annual Homeownership and Wealth Building Conference in Washington, D.C. last week marks a new milestone in the 20-plus year relationship between the global franchisor and the organization with numerous CENTURY 21^® system members taking on NAHREP leadership roles including 2024 President Nora Aguirre, CENTURY 21 Americana, and 2026 President-Elect Edwin Acevedo, CENTURY 21 Lotus.

A 35-year industry veteran, Herrera has dedicated herself to helping families find their dream home and establish a path to generational wealth through investment opportunities. Her journey within NAHREP began as an active member of NAHREP Chicago, where she served on its board for two years. She then went on to found NAHREP Chicago North, now known as NAHREP DuPage, and continued her involvement on the NAHREP National Board of Directors helping to shape the organization’s direction and mission. As the 2025 NAHREP President, Herrera will help drive the organization forward to advocate for and empower Hispanic homeownership and amplify the voice of Hispanic real estate professionals nationwide.

“I am deeply honored and humbled to take on this new leadership role with NAHREP,” said Oralia Herrera, Independent Broker/Owner of CENTURY 21 TK Realty Inc. “Having been part of this incredible organization for many years, I am excited to continue working alongside our members to advance opportunities for Hispanic professionals in the real estate industry. Together with industry leading brands like CENTURY 21, we will continue to break barriers and create a lasting impact in communities across the country.”

As a leader in Hispanic Consumer Brand Awareness *, the CENTURY 21 brand recognizes the critical role that Hispanics will continue to play in the future of homeownership. In fact, according to the 2024 NAHREP State of Hispanic Homeownership Report, despite a slight decline in the U.S. Hispanic homeownership rate, more Hispanic households own their homes today than ever before. This represents the largest annual increase among any racial or ethnic group for the second consecutive year, accounting for over a third of total homeownership growth nationwide.** With this in momentum in mind, the CENTURY 21^® brand continues to be committed to enhancing representation within the industry. Its vast network of independent agents and brokers, nearly 10 percent of whom identify as Spanish-speaking, are armed with the resources, knowledge and in-language materials to meet the unique needs of today’s Hispanic home buyers, sellers and property investors.

“As NAHREP celebrates 25 years of leading the charge with the Hispanic community, the CENTURY 21 brand shares in its mission of advancing opportunities for Hispanics within the real estate market,” said Mike Miedler, President and CEO of Century 21 Real Estate LLC. “Especially in today’s climate, it is so important to have organizations and brands out there advocating for access and resources that enable all communities to achieve that dream of homeownership. We are thrilled to celebrate leaders like Oralia, Nora, Edwin and so many others within the CENTURY 21 network who are reinforcing the value that great agents bring to the real estate journey.”
