Francesca Ortolano

Originally from Brooklyn I moved to the Hudson Valley 30+ years ago. Though I left the city behind I brought with me my savvy negotiation skills and passion for helping others. You will benefit from my experience as a ‘head hunter’ filling upper-level executive admin. positions for fortune 500 companies in NYC. Having developed excellent communication skills and great work ethics I chose to relocate my family to the beautiful Catskills mountains. In the past 14 years I have been involved with property sales and management. Having first received my real estate license in 2006, I moved into property management in 2009. These skills and experience result in extensive knowledge of the Hudson Valley for both private and investment property sales and purchases.

My connection with community also helps to serve your needs so you can achieve your desire to sell or buy a home in the Catskills. I have been hands on involved in the local community with 30+ years of volunteer work with children & families. Attending town board meetings in multiple townships when important issues effect the community. Implemented two local food pantries that served hundreds of elderly people in the community. Lead and/or participated in coalitions to serve those in need plus a myriad of other volunteer work over the 30+ years as a resident and business owner in this magical mountain region.

In general, I lead an active outdoor lifestyle here in the mountains and know the topography, microclimates and history of each part of the Catskill’s and what the surrounding townships have to offer. This knowledge goes a long way when helping you find the house that is exactly right for you or to price and sell your beloved home in a timely manner.

In summary, I bring a seasoned diverse experience customized to you and your objectives. I look forward to serving you.My connection with community can also help to serve your needs so you can achieve your desire to sell or buy a home in the Catskills.
