Review for Member: Francesca Brennan
ZillowVERIFIEDFrancesca was A-1. She was on top of every part of the process. Didnt miss a beat. In fact, she went out of her way to take care of us, thinking of details that we wouldn't have thought of ourselves. In our experience of buying a number of homes over the years, weve never worked with anyone better.

ZillowVERIFIEDFrancesca and her team were amazing. So great to work with! She was knowledgeable about neighborhoods, housing, the real estate market, etc. Francesca was very helpful when it came to listing the house and guided me in the right direction. She was patient with my many questions and insecurities, and she was always available and responsive. I was very happy with the showings and sale of my house and would highly recommend her. She was an all around lovely person to work with!

ZillowVERIFIEDI wasn't planning on becoming a landlord in New Orleans, but life happens. My sister researched reviews of realtors in NOLA and reached out to Francesca. What a God send! Francesca went above and beyond, helping and guiding me through every step in the journey of readying the duplex (or "double" as they are known locally) and finding, vetting and contracting with tenants. Using her vast network of local professionals, Francesca referred me to a lawyer, handyman, landscaper, electrician, house cleaner, locksmith and insurance agent. Each of her referrals were awesome and they, subsequently, referred me to additional professionals. Especially since I live out-of-state, when I say that I couldn't have done it without her, I am not exaggerating. In addition to Francesca's awesome professionalism, she was kind and patient during what was a difficult time for me. I can't recommend Francesca more highly!

ZillowVERIFIEDFrancesca was absolutely incredible to work with throughout both the sale of our home and our purchase process. She is warm, responsive, communicative, and truly went above and beyond every step of the way. We were selling in a tough market, and she navigated everything with professionalism, strategy, and persistence that made all the difference. She was always available to answer questions, provide updates, and help us think through decisions, which made what could have been a very stressful process feel manageable and smooth. Francesca also played a huge role in keeping our purchase moving forward and ensuring everything stayed on track from start to finish. We genuinely felt supported the entire time and could not recommend her more highly. If you want a realtor who is knowledgeable, caring, proactive, and deeply committed to her clients, Francesca is the one.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I were concerned about selling in a volatile market of high interest rates and slower demand. Francesca Brennan and her team at Engel and Volkers have exceeded our expectations. They were highly professional in their punctuality, always being available, and precision in coordinating the entire selling process. Their knowledge of the market is excellent, and they are great at reaching potential buyers. They sold our house quickly and for a solid offer. We highly recommend them.

ZillowVERIFIEDFrancesca was amazing! We moved across country and found her through Zillow and stuck with her for 2 years until the perfect time to move! She kept in touch and was extremely knowledgeable. When the time came to buy she was very hands on and walked us through every step. We are loving our new home. She has the best recommendations and one for everything you could possibly need! Francesca is your girl!

ZillowVERIFIEDFrancesca handled all the tasks of home buying with expertise. Handled all the details of negotiating and went over and above by assisting in the legal process as well. She continued to offer any additional help or services as needed which was an enormous benefit as I was not living in the same area as the purchase of the home.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe connected with Francesca from an internal Engel & Volkers (E&V) recommendation; we had previously used E&V to sell a home in another state. And what a stellar recommendation it ended up being. We relocated to New Orleans from Utah so we had to conduct our initial search from a distance. Francesca worked with us to understand our needs and was able to line up a number of homes for us to visit on a house-hunting trip to New Orleans. In a few days we were able to get acclimated to the various neighborhoods and found the home we ended up purchasing. The home was a new construction and we wanted to add a number of items, Francesca helped us smoothly navigate working with the seller. She was helpful in getting us connected with a mortgage broker and insurance agent as well meeting various inspectors at the house in our absence. In the end, Francesca helped make our move to New Orleans flawless. We remain big fans of E&V and highly recommend Francesca.

ZillowVERIFIEDLooking at houses with Francesca was like looking with an old best friend. She really thought about what I wanted and needed and put that ahead of anything. I feel like I bought the perfect house for me, my future and my needs. She really knows New Orleans and was able to connect me with good people to handle all aspects of my purchase. I have adult kids who'll be purchasing soon and I know they plan on getting Francesca's help.

We did this from a far and she went above and beyond to put us at ease and get our house sold. She knows the market, the art of negotiation, and how to manage ecxpectations while delivering above and beyond. We have bought 1 house and sold 2 with Francesca.

ZillowVERIFIEDI cannot say enough great things about Francesca. My husband and I met Francesca at a house she was showing in Woodlake Estates. She was so nice and she really knew her stuff. That was in April. It is now June, and we are in our new home. She made us feel like we were her only clients. She is a ball of energy, and she gets things done. She is a top notch realtor!!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy wife and I met Francesca at a showing and she was so impressive that we asked her to sell our home and assist us with buying a house we had our eye on. From the start she shared her plan for marketing our home and we quickly had showings and an offer to purchase. She successfully navigated the process and explained everything to us along the way. We could not be happier with her services. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to sell and/or buy.

ZillowVERIFIEDWhat can I say about Francesca Brennan with Entablature that I havent already gushed to my friends and family??? Oh wait, I should share exactly those things! We met completely through Zillow and could not have gotten a more experienced and knowledgeable guide to walk us through buying a home in New Orleans. Francesca was and continues to be a wealth of information and references for maintenance and restoration of the amazing properties that New Orleans has to offer. We feel incredibly lucky to have had her guidance and to now have her as a friend and community member. She is amazing and made the whole home buying experience here fun and we are all super excited with the property we chose to spend more time in this wonderful city! What a great experience finding her through Zillow and working with Entablature!

ZillowVERIFIEDFrancesca was amazing to work with from start to finish when selling our home in the Irish Channel. Her expertise in New Orleans neighborhoods was so helpful in finding the perfect selling price and providing a beautiful Zillow listing. They went above and beyond to make themselves available to meet with potential buyers and host open houses -- also answering our (many, many) questions. She was wonderful at handling negotiations with buyers to ensure we got a fair offer. In the end, our house sold quickly at the price we were hoping for! We are so excited to continue working with Francesca to find our next New Orleans home!

Review for Member: Francesca Brennan
ZillowVERIFIEDI should preface this review by saying that my wife and I were remote home buyers and we're lucky enough to be introduced to Entabulature realty and Francesca, our agent, through a mutual friend and previous customer. Francesca, supported by her team at Entabulature, were incredible. I never purchased the house before and was largely unaware not just of the process of purchase but also some of the nuances and peculiarities of purchasing a house in New Orleans. Francesca skillfully guided us through this process and we are now the proud owners of our dream House. I should also emphasize that Francesca did a superb job in helping us find the right house. We explored multiple neighborhoods in New Orleans, she was receptive to our ideas and needs, albeit somewhat eclectic as they were. I'm sure we were challenging customers for her but she was very very instrumental and supportive both logistically and to be honest emotionally throughout the whole process. I can't imagine a better realtor or more competent company to do business with if you are thinking about purchasing in New Orleans. We feel very lucky and Francesca referred us to all of the local contacts that we need in terms of utilities contractors and other support services - something she really didn't have to do it all. So, in summary, it was a wonderful house buying experience and my wife and I will be forever grateful to Francesca for the work that she did for us.

ZillowVERIFIEDFrancesca was amazing! The sale of our home was a tough one. Right when the market started to take a little downturn, is when we listed. She was very motivated to find us a buyer and make our move as easy as possible.

She is very knowledgeable of the area and creative with tactics to move your home! Thanks Fran!

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a newcomer to this area, I was totally dependent upon Francescas expertise in taking me around to various neighborhoods. She definitely has the instinct for knowing what homes are going to suit her clients. Based on my lifestyle and budgetary parameters, she was able to find me the perfect home in a very short time. She and Peter were always available, and as I came up with questions, they were often a step ahead of me. I would have no hesitation in recommending them!

Review for Member: Francesca Brennan
ZillowVERIFIEDWe were home-buying newbies. And boy were we terrified. We had approximately 1,000,000 questions and reservations. Between Fran and her assistant, Jenny, each question and reservation was addressed quickly, thoroughly, and without an ounce of judgment (as we had experienced with other realtors). She walked us through each step of the process and held our hands when needed. Further, as working parents, she was thoughtful in her requests and relieved of us any tasks when possible. We appreciated her acumen, her advice, her expertise and overall performance as an agent. It makes all the difference when you feel like your agent is on your team, has your back, and is not just there to facilitate the transaction. Worth noting: she got us a STELLAR deal and helped us get the house we wanted well below budget. Thank you, Fran, for guiding us. Most of all, thank you for leading us to this beautiful chapter in our lives!

Review for Member: Francesca Brennan
ZillowVERIFIEDFran was FANTASTIC! Rather than just looking for a commission, she was a constant companion throughout the house buying process. From the very beginning, she knew which questions to ask to help me choose something that I would be happy with for years to come- and many of these questions were ones I did not think to ask myself. By first asking me these questions and making me truly reflect on the answers, we were able to come up with a much better sense of what would in the long run best suit my situation. If she didnt care as much as she did or didnt have the skills to know which questions to ask, I would have been disappointed with the listings shown and most likely would not have a home today. In addition to making sure she knew what exactly I wanted, she was also incredibly honest and accommodating. Rather than letting me get in a tight spot, she walked me through the finances and helped me determine what a good fit was for me. Even if a listing was at the top of my budget, she made sure to take the time to talk me through what that would mean in terms of what I would be giving up and how that would impact my overall lifestyle and satisfaction. This came even at her own detriment, as she was losing out on additional revenue if I chose not to close on the listings at the top of my budget. This honesty and integrity is really what made me glad I went with Fran as a relator. Finally, Fran is absolutely tenacious, and has to be one of the hardest working relators out there. If I had a question or sent her a listing in the evening or even at 9 pm, I was sure to get a text or call within a few hours. She also was also updating me on listings as soon as they hit the market. She also had a solid grasp of the market and an intuitive sense of what was over/under market value, just from looking at pictures. This intuitive market sense and impeccable negotiation skills are why I have a house today. She knew exactly when to put in a bid and exactly what would be accepted. Even when I was skeptical, she convinced me to trust her and she was right. Truly, I could not recommend Fran higher and would tell anyone looking for a realtor to stop now because they would not find anyone else that possesses her combination of integrity, professionalism, and skill.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe hired Entablature as a buyer's agent for our move home to New Orleans starting in Fall 2021. Francesca and her assistant Jenny had us in our dream house, in an area we never even thought possible, by Spring. They went above and beyond, answering every question, and addressing every concern no matter how trivial. We could not have been in better hands. They're still supporting us now, even after closing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe were connected through Zillow, and I am grateful for this. The Entablature team was extremely responsive. We are out of town and time zone, and they were available to us despite it being outside of normal hours. Advice was spot on and helped us secure our property. From the first connection, Francesca and Jenny were quick to reply; help organize a virtual tour; and give us solid advise on offer, timings, and inspections. My brother was my proxy and they were quick to pull him in and show him the property. As expected this place was highly sought after and Francesca and Jenny were honest about our need to move fast! Buying sight unseen is scary but we knew the area and trusted the advice given to us. We saw the place literally the day before closing, and knew Francesca had our best interests in mind! This team is aces!

Review for Member: Francesca Brennan
ZillowVERIFIEDCan not recommend Francesca and her team enough. As first-time buyers, there was a lot we did not know about the process. Francesca was incredibly patient with us and really made an effort to understand what we were looking for. It truly felt like she wanted us to be happy and in the right place rather than just trying to find us something ASAP. Given how competitive the market currently is, it was incredibly helpful to have someone on our team who is an absolute expert on the process of buying a home. She was also an amazing advocate for us throughout the closing process. Really can not imagine having gone through this process without having her in our corner.
