Karen Schoemaker

I was born in South America, educated in the United States, and have lived in Paris for over twenty-five years, developing an in-depth understanding of the city’s prime and off-market residential landscape. My international background allows me to advise U(HNWI) and families with cultural fluency, discretion, and strategic insight.

My professional experience combines six years in the financial markets as an interbank broker, senior exposure to the luxury sector through the commercialization of prestigious fashion houses including Hermès, Saint Laurent, and Céline, and work within the cultural sector. This multidisciplinary expertise enables me to approach real estate not only as an asset class, but as a long-term store of value aligned with lifestyle, legacy, and investment objectives.

Fluent in four languages, I provide a bespoke Private Office service, advising clients on the acquisition, positioning, and enhancement of exceptional properties in Paris and select international markets, with a focus on confidentiality, precision, and value creation.
