THE COLDWELL BANKER VALLEY BROKERS HOME:
In celebration of their 100th birthday,  Coldwell Banker Valley Brokers committed to sponsoring 200 Habitat homes nationwide.  The local branch is sponsoring two homes in Linn-Benton Counties, in partnership with WELLS FARGO HOME MORTGAGE, OSU FEDERAL CREDIT UNION AND FIRST AMERICAN TITLE.  

                Kathy Powell                                     Teresa Estegard
This project, spearheaded by KATHY POWELL, Co-owner of Linn-Benton Coldwell Banker Valley Brokers, raised $37,000 for Benton Habitat for Humanity alone. With unbelievable dedication and perseverence, Kathy recruited her real estate agents, bankers, escrow agents, her huband, Tom, and family and friends to build two Habitat homes in Linn and Benton Counties.

In partnership with Kathy and Coldwell Banker Valley Brokers, TERESA ESTEGARD from Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, Corvallis, coordinated the Wells Fargo employee team, personally showed up for 20 construction days, and orchestrated a $17,500 Wells Fargo Grant to make this a reality.
