Frederick Peters

FREDERICK WARBURG PETERS is President of Warburg Realty Partnership, one of the oldest and most respected luxury residential brokerage firms in Manhattan. A graduate of Yale College with a Masters and extensive pre-doctoral work in music, Frederick entered the real estate business as a residential agent in 1980. After working as a Manager at Albert B. Ashforth for a number of years, he acquired and renamed the 95-year old firm in 1991. During the past nineteen years, Frederick has expanded the company from 60 to 130 agents and from one to three locations. In addition to leading the firm's strategic initiatives, he continues to work as a broker for two reasons: he loves the thrill of making a deal; and he feels it keeps his finger on the pulse of the marketplace, making him a more valuable resource to his agents. Frederick's daily involvement ensures that Warburg's core philosophy as a trusted advisor forging strong relationships between its professionals and the customers, clients and communities they serve is consistently fulfilled, and that the firm's position as an independently owned major player in the New York City marketplace is maintained. He is the most frequent contributor to Warburg's Blog and one of the most quoted experts in the Manhattan residential real estate industry. Frederick's dedication to the industry is further expressed through his involvement on The Real Estate Board of New York's (REBNY) Board of Directors - Residential Division; as a member of REBNY's Board of Governors; and as the Vice President for Residential Brokerage on REBNY's Executive Committee. In January of 2010 Frederick received the prestigious Kenneth R. Gerrety Humanitarian Award which recognizes meritorious service to the community by a REBNY member; he was also a recipient of REBNY's 1996 Henry Forster Award, given for a lifetime of achievement and contribution to the industry.
