Meet Françoise

With more than 20 years as a Sarasota resident and a rich international career spanning Europe and the United States, Francoise brings a dynamic blend of global perspective and local expertise to the real estate market. Her 25 years in business and marketing have honed her ability to understand and meet the diverse needs of her clients, ensuring outstanding service that consistently exceeds expectations. That, combined with the strength of the iconic luxury powerhouse brand, Michael Saunders and Company, Francoise leverages a strong affiliate network, marketing acumen, and creative negotiation strategies to deliver expectational results for her clients. Whether you are buying, selling, or investing, Francoise’s personalized approach and market expertise make her the ideal partner for your real estate goals.
 
Born in Paris and raised between the United States and southern France, Francoise’s multicultural background and education have shaped her sophisticated approach to real estate. She holds a degree in International Affairs from Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. and pursued her master’s studies at the Université d' Avignon in France. Fluent in French, Francoise is uniquely positioned to assist clients from around the globe in navigating Sarasota’s vibrant real estate market, including Longboat Key, Lido Key, Bird Key, Siesta Key, and the other barrier islands, as well as Lakewood Ranch, and beyond.
 
A passionate Sarasota resident, Francoise embraces the area’s sunny charm, rich cultural venues, and active lifestyle. When she’s not helping clients find their dream homes, you can find her attending cultural events, playing tennis, diving into a great book, or spending quality time with her daughter, Gabriella. A dedicated traveler, she cherishes annual trips back to France and still finds time for her lifelong love of skiing, hitting the slopes in Vermont twice a year—where she once competed as a youth racer.
