About Simone
Simone Franco speaks your language! Whether you’re a first-time buyer or veteran property owner, whether you live in New York or are relocating from out of town, Simone will guide you through the process with knowledge, grace and good humor—and she can seal the deal in Spanish, English, French, Hebrew, or Italian. Raised in Peru, Simone lived abroad before making New York her home and she brings to the table a perspective on New York real estate that combines the Old World with the Digital Age.
Simone attributes her success to the dedication and respect she shows all her clients, whether they’re spending $400,000 or $4 million. “For me the satisfaction of what I do is finding the right fit, one which suits a client’s needs and budget. In today’s market, that sometimes means being creative with location or space.” To that end she scouts new frontiers in Manhattan and Brooklyn to present the most interesting finds.
With a BFA from the Parsons School of Design, she can help a buyer visualize space and potential renovations, and she can create a quick sketch to show how it would work. For a seller, she will stage the property with flair and market it aggressively and creatively. Having served as president of her own co-op, Simone knows firsthand what boards look for in prospective shareholders and helps her clients navigate the interview process with ease.
Simone’s loyalty, energy, and enthusiasm have won her the allegiance of clients who come to buy their first home, return with each sale and purchase, and who refer her to others. For exceptional service and outstanding results, let Simone Franco be your real estate broker for life.

Nuestra experencia con Simone fué magnífica desde el primer contacto. Simone supo escoger la propiedad ideal, guiándonos con habilidad y tino a través de todo del proceso, desde la negociación al cierre e inclusive dando inicio a una gran amistad.— Marissa, Julio y Martín Jimenez, Buyer
Simone was our rock. Within minutes of discussing our needs as a growing young family, Simone knew what we wanted and we didn't feel like we were being pushed into evaluating properties that would not meet our needs. As an added perk, Simone also has an artistic eye. Her practical aesthetic was particularly helpful when envisioning renovations.— Avi Weitzman and Elizabeth Comen, Buyer
I want to thank you again for helping us sell Dad's apartment. We greatly appreciate your patience and professionalism. Selling the apartment lifted a major burden off my parents and they now feel they have enough liquid assets for the rest of their retirement years.— Bruce D. Merkur, Seller
I appreciate the hard work and close personal service you afforded me throughout my search for a new place and during the process of offer, negotiation, sale and closing. I don’t know what I would have done if you hadn’t been in my corner. I would highly recommend you to anyone who might ask me for a contact in the real estate market.— John Burt, Buyer
We enthusiastically recommend the services of Simone Franco. Her expert pricing and marketing resulted in enormous interest and multiple bids. She then found us the perfect pied-a-terre. We consider ourselves very lucky for having worked with Simone.— Debra and Arnold Blank, Buyer & Seller
