Compass team launches bridge to Israel luxury market

Luxe Latitudes of Compass and Montefiore Real Estate Group have formed The Global Bridge to Israel, a partnership aimed at connecting U.S. and international luxury buyers with Israeli property opportunities. The initiative combines U.S. client reach with local expertise as demand rises in Israel’s high-end market.

Why it matters: - The partnership creates a direct pathway for U.S. and international buyers into Israel’s luxury real estate market. - The initiative is aimed at helping clients navigate cross-border purchasing, legal frameworks and investment structuring. - The rollout comes as demand for premium property in Israel continues to outpace supply in key markets.

What happened: - Luxe Latitudes of Compass and Montefiore Real Estate Group announced a strategic partnership under the banner The Global Bridge to Israel. - The announcement was made June 9, 2026. - The initiative connects global real estate professionals, investors and luxury buyers to opportunities in Israel. - More information is available through the Global Bridge to Israel website.

The details: - The partnership brings together Hyleri and Marc Katzenberg of Luxe Latitudes and Roie and Rebecca Kaner of Montefiore Real Estate Group. - Luxe Latitudes operates across Fairfield County, Connecticut, Southeast Florida and the Caribbean. - Luxe Latitudes is ranked on the Real Trends Top Realtors list. - Montefiore Real Estate Group is described as Israel’s leading boutique luxury agency. - Roie Kaner has been recognized by the Israeli real estate industry, the Times of Israel and YNET as one of the country’s foremost experts in luxury property marketing and sales. - The partnership will give Luxe Latitudes clients access to Montefiore’s luxury portfolio across Israel. - The program will include personalized property tours and market briefings. - The program will also include cross-border legal and financial guidance. - Joint programming, curated property experiences and events are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.

Between the lines: - The collaboration is built around two husband-and-wife teams, which both firms frame as a relationship-first approach to luxury brokerage. - Israel’s luxury market is drawing interest from tech-sector wealth, diaspora investors and international buyers. - Demand is highlighted in Tel Aviv, Herzliya Pituach and Jerusalem, where premium supply is tight. - The partnership gives the firms a differentiated niche because few U.S.-based luxury teams have a direct, trusted channel into Israel. - The structure also blends local execution in Israel with U.S.-based client sourcing, which could lower friction for cross-border buyers.

What’s next: - Luxe Latitudes and Montefiore plan to release details on specific programming in the coming weeks. - The firms are expected to continue building joint events and curated property experiences around the new platform. - The initiative will likely serve as a lead-generation and advisory channel for buyers considering Israeli luxury assets.

The bottom line: - The Global Bridge to Israel pairs U.S. luxury client access with Israeli market expertise at a time when demand for high-end property in Israel is rising fast.
