Founding Owner
Broker/Owner
Gene Armstrong opened Coldwell Banker Gene Armstrong on October 31, 1990, with its main office located in Inglewood, California. Gene embodied the entrepreneurial spirit and understood the importance of bringing a trusted national real estate brand to Inglewood and surrounding areas. Integrity and service of superior quality was his north star. He knew the real estate industry well and had remarkable ability to attract and train new-to-the-business real estate professionals and put them on a path to their own success. In 2022, Coldwell Banker Gene Armstrong, a trusted leader in Southern California real estate was acquired by Christie Thomas and is now doing business as Coldwell Banker Champion Realty. The new ownership will continue the CB Gene Armstrong legacy of excellence. “I am thrilled to be the new owner of Coldwell Banker Champion Realty,” said Christie Thomas, Broker/Owner. “Having spent 15 years working in real estate, and specifically within the Inglewood and Greater Los Angeles area, I have a unique understanding of the market and the ever-changing needs of today’s home buyers and sellers.” Thomas continued, “When the opportunity arose to continue the legacy of my late broker and mentor, Gene Armstrong, and to acquire his independently owned and operated affiliated Coldwell Banker company (one of the most successful real estate brands in the world), I jumped at the chance. To be involved with such a powerful brand that continues to innovate and attract consumers around the globe gives me and the Coldwell Banker Champion Realty agents a major advantage over our competitors.”
I bought my house through the Inglewood Coldwell Banker office many years ago. Gene was the listing agent, Christie was my agent, and Suzy handled all the paperwork. They were an amazing team, and I've kept in touch with them since. I am very pleased with my home. I am especially grateful to each of them for the professionalism and excellent service. Coldwell Banker is a leading national real estate company, but what stood out to me most was their heart for the local community. They are down to earth people, and they care. I highly recommend the Coldwell Banker office in Inglewood. --jacelease
