Patrice Franco

I was born and raised in New York and graduated from Penn State with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration and Marketing.  I began my professional career in New York City’s Financial Services Industry and spent the majority of my career at several of the top Asset Management firms including Merrill Lynch and BlackRock.  After a 35 year successful Sales Career, I’m drawn to real estate sales as a natural transition.  I’m excited to bring my unrelenting drive, passion and sales expertise to the Leibowitz Realty Group and our Sellers/Buyers!  

While working in New York City, my passion for Golf brought me to the Palm Beaches over a decade ago.  I am a Resident of the BallenIsles Community in Palm Beach Gardens and active member of BallenIsles Country Club.  As a “Resident Realtor - BallenIsles Specialist”, I have an intimate knowledge of BallenIsles’ 33 communities and various Club membership categories.  That being said, my expertise in luxury country club communities does not stop at BallenIsles!  I also have a wealth of knowledge of many of the top luxury communities, golf and country clubs in the Palm Beaches having experienced these high-end venues as a Competitive Golfer. 

As in my prior career, representing a top firm has always been important to me.  I was attracted to joining Leibowitz Realty Group as they are one of the premier luxury home and upscale country club specialists in the Palm Beaches.  I am proud to affiliated with a Brand Leader that brings over 30 years of experience, resources and billions of dollars in sales for their clients.  Leibowitz Realty has more combined sales in the major high-end country club communities than any other luxury real estate firm in our market.  We know the various clubs and amenities better than anyone!

Leverage the skills I’ve acquired over three and a half decades … sales and marketing expertise, negotiating prowess, Concierge 24/7 service, attention to detail and continuous communication throughout the selling/buying process. 

Finally, on a personal note, my love of golf has led me to significant volunteer leadership roles with the USGA, PGA Tour, PGA of America, LPGA and LPGA Amateurs at Major Championships including U.S. Opens, PGA Championships, FedEx Cup Playoffs, the President Cup and the upcoming 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black.  I’ve achieved USGA Expert Level Certification of the Rules of Golf and have served as a Rules Official for the Metropolitan Golf Association (MGA) and Long Island Golf Association (LIGA) for over 12 years.
