Jane Katz
Jane Katz is a lifelong New Yorker. Her understanding of New York City real estate began early through her father, a successful real estate developer, and has been strengthened by decades of living in, experiencing, and selling in Manhattan’s diverse neighborhoods.
For nearly a decade, Jane has focused on Manhattan luxury real estate, buyer and seller representation, investment properties, rentals, relocation, and first-time home purchases. She brings a strategic, highly responsive approach to every transaction, anticipating issues, negotiating firmly, and managing the details closely so her clients can make informed decisions with confidence. She serves buyers, sellers, investors, tenants, and first-time buyers throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn.
“Without any doubt in our mind, we would not have gotten the apartment we are living in now without Jane”
“We have never worked with a broker who is so responsive, so empathetic, or who works as hard as Jane”
“Jane’s relationships, experience, and diligence are simply unparalleled”
As summer winds down, Manhattan is heading into the fall market from a stronger position than transaction volume alone might suggest. John Walkup captured the dynamic well in his August 27 Forbes piece, “NYC Real Estate Is Quiet. Prices Aren’t.” Manhattan resale condo price per square foot is up 8.3% since January, and the median sale price is running roughly 7-8% above last year. At the same time, inventory remains unusually tight, reinforcing that lower transaction volume has not translated into weaker pricing.
As we head toward the close of the spring market, Manhattan real estate continues to show impressive resilience and momentum. Activity remains particularly strong in the luxury sector, where all-cash buyers are highly active and well-priced properties are attracting significant attention. Contract activity above $4 million remains robust, while the $2 million to $5 million market is benefiting from mortgage rates that have eased from last year's highs.
