Mrs. Charmane Hope
Codlin Profile
Mrs. Charmane Hope Codlin has been a Real
Estate Professional for over forty (40) years. Mrs. Codlin is a visionary whose
sense of purpose, perseverance and dedication has carried her throughout the
years, allowed her to weather the ups and downs of the market, and allowed her
to succeed in her chosen field.
Mrs. Codlin is a graduate of Westwood High
School, New York Institute of Stenotype and court reporting. She holds certificates in Marketing,
Management and Real Estate. She has also worked as a life under writer with the
former Mutual Life of Jamaica. She has been a licenced Real Estate Dealer since
1988 when the new Act came into force.
Mrs. Codlin began her Real Estate career in
1979 at Stiebel and Company as a sales agent. She gained a lot of
experience from the Broker Mr. Donald Stiebel who served as
President of the Realtors Association of Jamaica. After leaving Stiebel
and Company, she joined Acceleration Limited and worked as General Manager and
Director. There she expanded her portfolio into Property Management, Sales
Management and Public Relations.
Mrs. Codlin joined the Realtors Association of
Jamaica in 1985, and was the Honorary Secretary until 1992. Mrs. Codlin
has served as first and second vice President of the Association and sat on the
committee formulated to create a training course for persons who could not be
grandfathered into the new Real Estate Act and Regulations, and were perverting
the act of 1988.
During that time Mrs. Codlin was involved with
Public Relations and Marketing for the Association. The aim was to let the
public be aware of the new regulations and the benefits of developing a good
relationship with their Realtor. She and her fellow Realtors appeared in the
Gleaner and on the radio promoting the work of the Association.
Eventually it became clear that the
Association needed its own home base. Mrs Codlin was instrumental in
acquiring the first premises for the Association. She organized fund
raising activities and cheered the committee. The proceeds were used to
secure the property, and the repairs needed to improve the facilities.
That secretariat was eventually sold and the present offices at 40 Shortwood
Road purchased.
In 1987 Mrs. Codlin became a registered member
of the International Real Estate Institute (IREI), which is the world’s largest
International Real Estate Association with members in over 100 countries.
She also holds membership in The National
Association of Realtors Head quartered in Chicago since 2015.
Mrs Codlin founded Hope Codlin and Associates
in 1990,. Her business and life motto is “Service backed by Expertise,
Experience and Integrity”. Two years later, in 1992 Mrs Codlin was nominated to
the Real Estate Board of Jamaica , serving for 6 years until 1998.
In 1993 Mrs Codlin became President of
the Real Estate Association. This is a post she held for five (5) terms until
1998. During her tenure as head of the Association, the first Multiple
Listing System (MLS) rules were designed and developed, and the scope for
increasing membership of the organization was undertaken.
She was the guest speaker for the first Dealer Real
Estate Course Graduation held at the University of Technology.
Earlier on, Mrs. Codlin realized that great
performances should be rewarded and initiated the first award for the top
Salesman from each company. Each year these individuals are celebrated at the
RAJ awards ceremony.
Mrs Codlin has represented the Association
both locally and overseas. She has represented the RAJ at Realtors Conferences
in Bahamas, and made presentations in Atlanta, Miami and New Orleans.
Mrs Codlin has served on the RAJ council for
over twenty years. She has a firm understanding of contract and real estate
law, and has chaired several committees including the Disciplinary, Fund
Raising, Membership and Ethics.
In 2002 the RAJ recognized her for 20 years of
Dedicated and Excellent service to the Association. She was made a Life Member
in 2015.
Mrs. Codlin is a very people oriented person,
who enjoys sharing her wealth of knowledge and experience. Outside of the
Association she is an active member of the St Andrew Parish Church, former
president of the Belvedere Citizen Association, and a former Lioness.
Mrs. Codlin loves interior decorating, gardening, travelling and spending
time with her husband, children, grand-children and family.
