Franz has a gift for working with clients to ensure they maximize the selling price of their properties, and he offers a wealth of knowledge to buyers. He is a wise negotiator regardless of which side of the settlement table he is on. “People’s homes often are their most significant asset, so I feel an especially strong responsibility to provide professional guidance to them whether they are selling or buying,” says Franz. “It’s a privilege to be their trusted advisor and to now be able to offer them stronger marketing as part of an established, world-renowned brand.” In his first year with Kurfiss Sotheby’s International Realty, Franz has been active in both the Philadelphia and suburban markets, representing, among other properties, Guildford, one of the most noteworthy and remarkable estate homes in the U.S. Located in Wyndmoor, Pa., Guildford was listed at $8,900,000 and set a record for price achieved for single-family residence in the greater Philadelphia area when it settled in early 2021.
