About Cece

Cece Marsha Zimmerman has lived in Columbia all of her life, where she and husband Steve have raised three now grown daughters...Katie Atkinson and husband Zack, Natalie Salley and husband Tate, and Julia Bowers and husband Claude. Cece loved growing up in Forest Acres/Satchelford, and after marriage has lived in some of Columbia’s great neighborhoods………Wales Garden, Forest Acres/Satchelford (again), Forest Hills, and now Lake Katharine.

A student at Converse College and graduate of the University of South Carolina, Cece and her family love Carolina football, tailgating and all! A lifelong member of Saint Joseph Catholic Church, Cece currently serves on the church's Building Committee. She is also an active community volunteer as a sustainer of the Junior League of Columbia. Cece has served on several boards including the Advisory Board of Cardinal Newman School and The Irish Children’s Summer Program.

Cece enjoys playing bridge and bunco with good friends. A devoted walker, several years ago Cece traded walking the “hills” in her old neighborhood of Forest Hills with her latest route around the “lakes” in Lake Katharine. Cece's favorite hobby though is loving on her 7 grandchildren, Owen, Zim, Allie, Claude, Eliza, Bratton, and Lowry. Four of her grandchildren's mama, Katie Z. Atkinson, and Cece are both Coldwell Banker Realtors. They love to find the perfect houses for their clients or to get their clients' homes sold as quickly as possible. Let them handle all of your real estate needs.....from A to Z !!!!

As a Realtor, Cece has been very successful in finding the right fit for so many clients....either the perfect house for her buyers, or the right sale for her listings. She is a Relocation Specialist and enjoys introducing new clients to a city that she loves and is proud to call home. Cece is an active member in the local Realtors association, CCRA, and is a Lifetime Member of the Circle of Excellence. She also has achieved the Coldwell Banker International Diamond Society Award.

Cece has a passion for beautiful interiors and architectural details. She loves to show nice homes but also has the vision to explain to her clients how the "not so perfect" home can become one. She is willing to go wherever the sale takes her.....from Columbia to Lexington to Chapin to Blythewood or to the Northeast. She is eager and ready to show you what it is like to have extraordinary professional real estate assistance and representation.

The best of the best! Cece treated us like family from the moment we met her. As out of town buyers, Cece went above and beyond to accommodate us including FaceTime showings and even helped us keep our young children entertained and comfortable during long days of in person showings. She’s an expert on Columbia and all the Columbia neighborhoods. She’s incredibly in-tune with the market and knew about homes coming up before they even hit the MLS. When it came time for us to make an offer, she went above and beyond to help us negotiate the best possible price for our new home. She continued to support us after closing and helped introduce us to handymen & subs alike to take good care of our new home. We have extensive experience buying and selling real estate over the years, but have never come across an agent as professional, helpful, dedicated, knowledgeable and committed as Cece! 100% recommend her! We’ve never had a better experience with a realtor ever. She’s truly the best of the best!

If you are looking for a real estate agent that is not only extremely knowledgeable, but one that you could recommend to your mother, I'd have to say Cece Zimmerman is exactly that and, hands-down, the best agent I have worked with. After our recent purchase, I feel like she's family!

My wife and I purchased a house in the Columbia area while living in another state. It can be a challenging process, but Cece made it easy for us. She is native to this area which is also a bonus, and knows it inside and out. She even made suggestions for places for us to eat, see, and shop while in town. Awesome experience!

Thanks again, Cece!!
