PROPERTY SEARCH
Looking to sell your home? Now's the time! Let me help you find the home of your dreams...
A Full-time Real Estate Professional living in Central New York. I started in the Accounting Field in 1987 and have since transitioned into my passion for Real Estate. I grew up in the suburbs of Rochester New York, graduated from St. Bonaventure University, and have lived outside of Syracuse since 1989. I share my home with my husband Rob, College kids Cole and Sydney, and our two Havanese dogs, Macie & Ramsie.
Kathy Franco Real Estate is about the housing Market, people, places, and things I love. I share my knowledge of the home buying and selling process, interiors, keep a list of helpful home ideas, and share bits and pieces of my life that I hope you'll be able to relate to as well. Real Estate is my happy place, sharing my love for homes, business, people — and I hope it becomes one of your happy places, too!
In my spare time, you can find me watching my kids play soccer or lacrosse. We love to ski, but I hate the cold! Anything Polartec is my favorite piece of clothing in the winter! In the summer, I like to walk, rollerblade, or just enjoy the outdoors.
I love working with people and trying to find the perfect house or sell a house in a creative way! I've always loved working with numbers, too. In my spare time, I am looking through a home magazine or watching HGTV.

Core Purpose
Making a positive difference in people's lives by improving the real estate experience
My family and I support various charities in the Syracuse area. Our prime involvement is with GiGi's Playhouse and the Samaritan Center.
GiGi's Playhouses are Down syndrome awareness and educational centers that provide resources, specialized teaching, and support to individuals with Down syndrome, their families, and the community. Syracuse is lucky enough to have a center in Drivers Village in North Syracuse.
The Samaritan Center is a 501c3, interfaith effort of community members committed to serving the hungry and those in need in order to promote their welfare dignity and self-sufficiency.

Getting ready to sell your home is staging! I can't stress enough the importance of doing this if you want to sell your home quickly and for the most money. I always tell my sellers that buyers want their homes to look like a page out of the Pottery Barn catalog. I think if you go online to look at their rooms, they are clean and simple. The style appeals to young and old alike. What this doesn't mean, you don't have to spend a lot of money or go out and redecorate. What it does mean is you need a clean, neutral color scheme for your home. Your house has to have lots of light and simple accessories. Buyers need to picture themselves living in your home. When you simplify and pare down your home, you can achieve this.
It is important to pack away all your "stuff" neatly. You are planning to move, so start the process and pack up the things you don't use every day. Make your cabinets neat and tidy and show all the storage your home offers. Put your boxes neatly in the garage. Buyers understand you are movin,g so they won't hold it against you if your garage holds all your boxes. Take down the family photos; you want buyers looking at the house, not your last family party.
