  • Richard Natow, President and Founder

    Richard Natow is true to the entrepreneurial spirit!

    Natow began his business career as an owner of an advertising and marketing company.

    He entered the real estate business and quickly developed a niche of selling land to builders and developers and then marketing the new home developments. He consistently was the top listing agent and selling agent for the region’s largest real estate company.

    Natow also understood the benefits of diversification and began selling and investing in commercial and investment properties.

    In 1987 Natow realized his dream and formed The Prestige Group.

    Natow’s diverse real estate background, including sales, marketing, investment properties, as well as involvement in building and development gives him an understanding of the entire scope of the real estate industry.

    Being licensed in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware enables Natow to be regional in his real estate dealings.

    Natow has been the recipient of numerous marketing awards by the Chester and Delaware Counties Home Builders Association. He has also been honored to be a judge for other regional Home Builder Associations.

    Natow has an uncanny intuition for knowing what’s ahead for the industry. His remarkable insight into people and “the art of the deal” are the key to the success of Prestige Group and it’s clients.

    An open door policy with management, sales and administration allows for a collaboration of ideas and problem solving techniques to ensure a positive, success oriented environment.
