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 />
