Sophie Franks

I love when things run smoothly, and pride myself on my ability to rise to the occasion when they don't. For many years I worked in the music industry, in artist management, handling music press and promotions, and running a recording studio. Everything hinged on timing and my ability to anticipate and manage potential problems. I bring the same skills and sensibility to real estate: I support my team with the day-to-day operations, so they can focus on you and your business.

I remember the excitement of buying my own apartment, and the feeling of increased security and promise for the future that owning my own home signified. But I also recall it being a stressful process, and I look back and think how different it could have been if my broker had someone like me; someone who could free them up to focus their energies on my needs. It is so important to me that excitement and adventure be a large part of your finding your new home. When you are buying or selling a home, it really is all about you, and I make sure of that.

"Marc Karavasian and his team at Compass are the real deal. Marc and his associate Sophie spent a great deal of time to ensure I was comfortable with every step of the process. The momentum they bring to the deal is invaluable and you feel that someone is taking your real-estate transaction as seriously as you are. A big thank you to Marc and his team for a top-notch experience!" - Abbas, Bushwick
