PALM BEACH, FL - The Fite Group Luxury Homes, the market-leading luxury real estate firm headquartered in Palm Beach, is pleased to announce it has partnered with William Raveis Real Estate (WRRE), the ninth largest real estate company in the United States. This strategic partnership secures a competitive edge to The Fite Group further broadening their high-end network to the luxury markets in the Northeast, like the upscale communities of Nantucket, Wellesley, Greenwich, Westchester and Manhattan.
“We’re proud to partner with such an outstanding team with a strong global reputation,” said David Fite, founder and principal of The Fite Group Luxury Homes. “At The Fite Group, we constantly transform to be the best for our agents and our clients. This partnership with Raveis expands our network for our clientele, gives our agents access to cutting edge technology and combines the high-levels of service and luxury market positions for which both companies are known."
As 85 percent of home buyers in Palm Beach County come from the Northeast -- parts of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Massachusetts, where WRRE leads the industry -- this partnership optimizes and broadens The Fite Group's exposure to potential buyers interested in purchasing homes in South Florida. David Fite believes their strong local expertise, coupled with the global luxury brand cache of WRRE, provides his agents the opportunity to tap into an even wider network, which will drive growth and expansion not only of The Fite Group’s current markets but also future markets.
“We have great respect for The Fite Group’s expertise and commitment to the discerning communities of Palm Beach County, demonstrated by David and Nadine Fite’s strong leadership,” said Chairman and CEO Bill Raveis, who founded WRRE 44 years ago. “They have leveraged their extensive experience in finance and marketing to create a uniquely branded firm with a flair for innovation that is equally focused on business fundamentals and a strong culture of collaboration. As two family-owned businesses joining forces, together we will become the luxury real estate powerhouse in Florida.”
“This partnership will make us an even stronger company, while ensuring the same family values and market expertise that we’ve honed over the last decade,” added Nadine Fite, Chief Marketing Officer, The Fite Group Luxury Homes. “We have cultivated a brand that prioritizes relationships over transactions and people over properties -- an ethos we share with Raveis.”
