Susan Penzner Real Estate is a full-service firm focused on matching exceptional people and brands with exceptional properties. Driven by a keen eye, architectural vision, and a passion for partnering with New York’s cultural vanguard, Penzner has played an integral role in forging the landscape of downtown New York. Before embarking on her career in real estate, Penzer built her art world network and honed her visual prowess at ArtForum in the venerated publication’s early days. She is equally recognized for finding the city’s most distinctive residential spaces. Since 1978, her vast circle has grown to include multiple generations of culture world icons and institutions, from Paul Smith to Rick Owens, Dominique Levy to Lisson Gallery, Dean Deluca to Indochine. Penzer and her team are known in New York as the fashion and art world’s go-to broker.
Based in Soho, the firm continues to work with galleries and luxury brands from Tribeca to Chelsea to Madison Avenue. Penzner’s reputation has expanded from Manhattan to the Hamptons, where she works with Saunders & Associates. They are deft advisors and trusted allies on both sides of a deal.
