"My husband and I, who live out of state, needed an agent to handle the sale of my parents home in Hastings-on-Hudson. Fran handled every detail of this undertaking for us - from creating a schedule to working with us to find contractors for painting, cleanout and more. Because we were out of state, she also met many of them at the door to ensure the job got done. This was not an easy undertaking, but Fran guided us through each step and - most importantly - worked with us to find the right buyers for the home such that the transaction went through smoothly. Along the way there were numerous obstacles which Fran also helped us navigate. As people who have bought and sold a number of homes, it's clear that Fran is one of the hardest working and most effective agents we have encountered. We are happy with the outcome, and we thank Fran for her very capable assistance through it all." Rebecca Rubin

My name is Jay Goldstein and I am a real estate attorney with offices in White Plains, NY. I have been handling residential real estate transactions for buyers and sellers for over 25 years. I have worked on several real estate transactions over the past two years with Fran O’Toole of Julia B. Fee Sotheby’s International Realty. In all of my years of handling purchases and sales I have rarely come across a real estate broker who is as dedicated and hard working as Fran is. On every deal I have worked with her she has needed to go that extra mile to get the closing done and she does it almost seamlessly. Fran has helped sellers obtain certificates of occupancy, worked with contractors, often when the sellers are not even around to get necessary work done in the house before closing, and negotiated terms when buyers and sellers are trying to make the deal work before it even gets into the attorneys hands. She is there every step of the way for her clients. I can say with complete confidence that I would recommend Fran’s services to any person looking to buy property in Westchester or any current homeowner looking to list their property for sale. Jay Goldstein, Esq.

A long overdue thank you for your help and patience in selling my home. My experience with you was stellar. Dan N.

Rarely have we dealt with a real estate professional who worked as hard for us throughout a rather intense process. Larry B.

I expected that selling our home of 40+ years would be very difficult emotionally. But I found that it was not as bad as I thought and the only reason is because of you and your support. We could not have done it without you. Mrs. Nancy H.

Fran gives the best service and she is extremely easy to spend your house-hunting time with. She is willing to do the work, better yet, she goes way beyond. When it came down to negotiating, sweet Fran stands a hard ground, but manages to do it without stepping on anyone's toes. Jason B.
