Colleen Cotter

Colleen Cotter brings a wealth of knowledge, compounded experience, and innovative marketing strategies to the business of real estate and the lasting relationships she builds with her clients.

Recognized in the top 1% of all agents in the Bay Area, Colleen’s unique background sheds light on her extraordinary capabilities and raw talent. The daughter of a developer, she embraced real estate at an early age and entered the industry after graduating from St. Ignatius and earning a B.A. in Psychology from Villanova University. It wasn’t long before Colleen’s extensive knowledge and aptitude for marketing converged to create The Cotter Group, a full-service luxury real estate team based in the heart of San Francisco.

Colleen’s track record speaks for itself. She’s been a topproducing agent in the Bay Area market for more than a decade, has placed in the “21 Club” of Top Producers at Vanguard Properties year after year, and is also a member of the coveted Top Agent Network. Colleen has consistently outperformed the market for her clients regardless of economic conditions, and testimonials boast of her incredible negotiating skills and ability to turn difficult transactions into seamless ones.

The vast knowledge she brings to the table as a Bay Area native, along with her innate ability to connect with clients, has contributed to her stellar reputation as a premier San Francisco agent. Colleen truly understands what her clients want: outstanding properties that also deliver a significant return on investment. That means buying wisely, but also selling skillfully when the time comes.

Colleen’s lifelong passion for real estate shines in everything she does, and that passion has fueled her ability to bring favorable results for her clients time and again – even in the most complex situations.

When Colleen isn’t helping clients achieve their buying and selling goals, you can find her at The Olympic Club, where she is a member, and partnering with local charities that are near and dear to her heart.

LICENSED AGENT

Zoe Frankel

Zoe is involved in the details of every single listing. She always has a lot on her plate, but her superpower is that she remains deeply detail-oriented while moving faster than anyone else! She ensures flawless execution of every task while communicating with clients, coordinating vendor appointments, overseeing project management, and managing budgets.

Those unique skills, combined with a natural love for her home city of San Francisco, is what drew Zoe to real estate. She’s rewarded in her career every single day, whether she’s helping a property reach its full potential before listing or enabling her clients to find their dream homes. She is deeply committed to ensuring that every client reaches the best possible outcome and has a great experience working with the team.

When she’s not selling homes, you can find Zoe on a run along Ocean Beach, urban hiking with her adored canine sidekick Toast, or enjoying a glass of rose’ in the sun with her friends.

What a treat this stunning home was to sell off market! This one was particularly special because our seller was able to live in the home for the entirety of the transaction!

The result was a record-setting price per square foot and a very happy seller!
