Anywhere Real Estate Inc. (formerly known as Realogy Holdings Corp.), has unveiled the company’s newly renovated headquarters. Known as the Madison Hub, the redesign is designed to facilitate a hybrid work model, the company said. The building is home to flexible collaboration and innovation workspaces for Anywhere employees across the company’s brand portfolio: Better Homes and Gardens® Real Estate, CENTURY 21®, Coldwell Banker®, Corcoran®, ERA®, and Sotheby’s International Realty®, a release stated.
“As we enter the next chapter of our transformation, attracting and accelerating growth of great talent is core to the Anywhere strategy,” said Ryan Schneider, Anywhere president and chief executive officer. “I am incredibly excited about how our newly redesigned Madison Hub will not only empower our employees to connect, collaborate, and drive results in a remote environment but also lead the industry into the future of work.”
Anywhere says it has adopted a remote-first work model and the Madison Hub’s design reflects this. The renovations mix individual ‘hoteling’ with tech-enabled collaboration spaces, along with training studios and event spaces for deepening employee and stakeholder connections. While there are no permanent offices, not even for company executives, the Anywhere brands each have dedicated space showcasing their unique values and visual identity for franchise sales prospects, affiliated brokers and agents, and employees, the company said. Other amenities include a grab-n-go café and coffee bar, wellness facility, technology services counter, and outdoor social space.
Anywhere noted that New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy and Bob Conley, mayor of Madison, New Jersey, joined local officials and members of the Anywhere management team to debut the Madison Hub for employees. Attendees were invited to tour the new space and engage in more than 20 celebratory experiences hosted by the Anywhere portfolio of brands.
“I am happy to join CEO Ryan Schneider and the entire Anywhere team for today’s ribbon cutting ceremony for the newly remodeled Anywhere headquarters in our very own Madison, New Jersey,” said Governor Murphy. “As every real estate professional knows, the three most important words in real estate are ‘location, location, location.’ By recommitting to Madison, Anywhere is proving that New Jersey is the perfect location for any business, the perfect location for your employees and their families, and the perfect location for their clients.”
Last month, the company officially completed its corporate rebrand from Realogy to Anywhere, signifying a strategic emphasis on building a more frictionless and digitized home buying and selling experience for any consumer, anywhere, the release stated.
