The initiative brings together Luxe Latitudes, a Compass luxury real estate team led by Hyleri and Marc Katzenberg, and Montefiore Real Estate Group, an Israel-based boutique agency led by Roie and Rebecca Kaner. Together, the teams will provide clients with market insight, property access, local guidance, and support for cross-border real estate decisions in Israel.

Through the partnership, clients can explore information about Israeli towns and neighborhoods, review investment considerations, and view selected property opportunities through Luxe Latitudes’ Bridge to Israel platform at https://luxelatitudes.com/bridge-to-israel/.
“Israel has deep personal and cultural meaning for many of our clients, but purchasing property internationally can feel unfamiliar without the right local team,” said Hyleri Katzenberg, Team Leader of Luxe Latitudes. “This partnership gives buyers a clear, relationship-driven way to explore the market with trusted professionals on both sides.”
Montefiore Real Estate Group will support the partnership with local market knowledge, access to luxury listings, and experience serving international clients interested in Israeli property. Luxe Latitudes will serve as a U.S.-based point of connection for clients seeking guidance before entering the Israeli market.
“Our goal is to make the process more informed, personal, and accessible for clients outside Israel,” said Roie Kaner, Founder and CEO of Montefiore Real Estate Group. “By working with Luxe Latitudes, we can help buyers approach the market with stronger context, clearer expectations, and trusted representation locally.”
Israel’s luxury real estate sector has continued to draw attention from buyers seeking lifestyle properties, second homes, long-term investments, and family connections to the country. Demand remains active in areas such as Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Herzliya Pituach, and other established and emerging luxury communities.
For many international buyers, however, entering the Israeli market can involve questions around location selection, property availability, legal process, financing, taxation, and on-the-ground representation. The new collaboration is intended to help address those questions by combining Luxe Latitudes’ client advisory approach with Montefiore’s local expertise.
The partnership is also shaped by the shared backgrounds of the two teams. Both firms are led by husband-and-wife partners who have built their businesses around long-term relationships, discretion, and personalized service. Hyleri and Marc Katzenberg bring experience across luxury real estate, entrepreneurship, philanthropy, and international client relationships. Roie and Rebecca Kaner bring experience in Israeli luxury sales, operations, legal and business strategy, and global client development.
Clients working through the collaboration may receive access to curated property options, personalized market briefings, private property tours, local introductions, and guidance from professionals familiar with the needs of international buyers.
Additional details about future events, property showcases, and client experiences connected to the partnership are expected to be shared in the coming weeks.
