Coldwell Banker Leads on Smart Home Technology
®
Luxury home buyers have always demanded the best. And in today’s highly connected world, that means a
home that’s every bit as smart as it is beautiful. Highly advanced, innovative and fully integrated technology
designed to make life simpler, safer and more efficient is increasingly sought after and even expected
among high-net-worth individuals.
What makes a home “smart,” though? Realizing that there was some confusion in the marketplace,
Coldwell Banker partnered with CNET, the world’s largest and most trusted online source of consumer
technology news and reviews, to develop a clear, concise definition of the term “smart home.” Our feature
article explores the definition, while showcasing some
of the many advantages and lifestyle enhancements
smart home technology brings to a home’s comfort,
security, entertainment and design.
®
No longer something from a sci-fi movie, the
connected home is now reality. Its influence is evident
in everything from home pricing to curb appeal to
how we move through our daily lives. By being at
the forefront of this advancement, Coldwell Banker
is uniquely equipped to help luxury home buyers and
sellers understand the current trends and benefits of
smart home technology – and, of course, help you
find a beautiful home with the smart home features
you want most.
