set us apart, especially in our Delray Beach<br />

market. They all have proven records of<br />

success. Having just celebrated the third anniversary<br />

of our Delray Beach office, we now<br />

have over 20 agents focusing on Delray, Gulf<br />

Stream, Ocean Ridge, Manalapan, and Boca<br />

Raton,” says David.<br />

The Fite Group prides themselves on<br />

taking a biographical approach to helping<br />

their clients fulfill their personal real estate<br />

dreams. “Our agents spend a great deal of<br />

time learning about their clients, understanding<br />

their current and desired lifestyles,<br />

and what is truly important to them. By doing<br />

this The Fite Group is better positioned<br />

to curate a selection of homes that not only<br />

meet our client’s needs on paper but feel<br />

right when they visit,” says Nadine Fite. “Our<br />

goal is to enable our prospective buyers to<br />

envision themselves living in and enjoying a<br />

particular home.” To The Fite Group it’s not<br />

simply a listing, it’s a lifestyle.<br />

Currently the highest priced home listed<br />

by The Fite Group is $45 million! Also in<br />

Manalapan, this waterfront mansion at 1370<br />

S. Ocean Boulevard is owned by Ed Brown,<br />

president and CEO of Patron Spirits International<br />

A.G. This luxurious property was<br />

recently featured in Elle Decor magazine and<br />

on Secret Lives of the Super Rich TV series.<br />

And getting back to The Piano Man,<br />

his nine-bedroom home and adjacent lot<br />

sundeck and surrounding intracoastal view<br />

is located on 1920/1940 S. Ocean Blvd. It<br />

was built in 2005, and underwent a total<br />

renovation in 2015. It offers 300 feet of<br />

both Intracoastal and ocean frontage with<br />

docking for up to a 65 foot boat. Its custom<br />

kitchen has a unique Chicago brick<br />

barrel ceiling. And, of course, one of his<br />

pianos sits in the living room, overlooking<br />

the blue palm-tree lined waters of the<br />

Intracoastal.<br />

Jack Elkins, a Manalapan resident and a<br />

Fite Group Realtor has been partnerning<br />

with The Piano Man for a number of years.<br />

“He’s a very nice, easygoing, down-to-earth<br />

guy,” Jack says. “He found this home to be a<br />

wonderful place for his family and a place<br />

of inspiration for his music. The home is<br />

light, bright and inviting. He loves South<br />

Florida and the waterfront lifestyle. As an<br />

avid boater, he wanted a place to write,<br />

play, and have a dock for his boat in his<br />

backyard.” Joel even named his waterfront<br />

estate, Villa Intermezzo. The perfect spot<br />

for his own personal interlude where he<br />

relaxed with family and friends and enjoyed<br />

the stunning sunsets across the wide<br />

expanse of the Intracoastal.<br />

The Fite Group place extra importance<br />

on their clients as people: “…we prioritize<br />

relationships over transactions, people<br />

over properties. Developing long-term<br />

trust is more important than any shortterm<br />

gains…”<br />

It’s all part of The Fite Way.<br />
