Frances Katzen serves a sophisticated and international clientele, with contacts in the US, Europe, Australia and the Middle East. This helps maximize demand for her clients, given the increasingly global bid for New York City real estate.
Frances possesses a sharp and detailed memory for real estate data, such as apartment layouts, building histories, new developments, recent sales comparables, pricing, and the historical financial performance of areas, buildings and apartments.
Recognized to include Bloomberg, Yahoo Finance, Schwab, and Fox Business to speak on market conditions —locally and globally because I don’t just track the market, I operate inside it.
That vantage point gives my clients something rare: clarity. What’s real, what’s noise, and where the edge actually is. In a market defined by nuance, that difference isn’t cosmetic—it’s the advantage.
“One Tree Planted is an organization that has managed to make itself accessible for every tier of interest. I’m a novice at all of this, and half the time I don’t know if I’m making any dent at all, but I'm trying to do my part and do something to shift this paradigm.”
