Real estate powerhouse
sells 107 Ibis
homes in 2021
There’s no question we’re still in a seller’s market for residential real estate. Homeowners all over South Florida are bombarded with offers, sight unseen, from the moment they list their property — and sometimes even before. Because of the limited inventory, buyers are aggressive, coming in with offers well above asking price, often in cash.
The market is especially hot in and around West Palm Beach, where the resort and country club communities attract eager buyers from all
over the country.
“Everyone is seeing the value,” says Eric Telchin, of The Telchin Group LLC, the boutique luxury brokerage group in the West Palm Beach/Palm Beach Gardens area that specializes in the award-winning community, The Club at Ibis. “We still continue to breaking sales records.”
But Eric cautions that, just because this red-hot market is favoring the seller, it doesn’t mean that selling your Palm Beach County house is easy — especially if you want to get maximum value out of your property. If you want to get top dollar for your home without the added stress and time it takes to navigate the crowded and fast-moving market, it pays to have an experienced agent with a proven track record in the region.
This was our 11th house to sell, East Coast, West Coast, North, and South. Eric was the best agent we have ever had. He exceeded our expectations.”

Eric knows this firsthand. Out of hundreds of agents, he is the top broker of homes in The Club at Ibis, a world-class country club community in West Palm Beach, and one of the best-selling agents in all of Palm Beach County. More specifically, Eric ranks #56 out of 18,000 agents in Palm Beach County. In 2021 alone, his firm closed on the sales of 107 houses in Ibis, including 11 all-time record-breaking deals and the highest sale on record in the history of Ibis and the entire zip code. They also got the highest price of any home sold in the history of the Preserve at Bay Hill Estates. And the momentum is continuing: In the first month of 2022, The Telchin Group surpassed sales records, including the highest sale on record in the history of Ibis.
These record-smashing numbers weren’t achieved by merely throwing the home up online and taking the first offer. It takes a firm with creativity, dedication, forward-thinking strategy and deep roots and connections in the community to maximize sales. Specifically, you want a broker who meets the following criteria:

“We invest a lot in our listings,” says Eric, who holds a degree in marketing from George Washington University, about the brokerage’s marketing efforts. “Creativity in the presentation of the listing is key.”
In addition to the expertly written listings, The Telchin Group emphasizes desirable aspects of the home through intentional photography, creating an environment through which the buyer can effortlessly connect with the property.
Once the listings and presentation are created, The Telchin Group knows how to get those materials in front of would-be buyers. A tactical combination of four marketing channels ― print, direct mail, social media, email, and digital ― makes record high home values the norm, so sellers can be confident they’re getting the best possible price for their property. Clients also know that The Telchin Group’s marketing reach extends well beyond the state of Florida and into states across the country, and across the globe. They’ve established a substantial amount of exposure in California and have long-standing partnerships with real estate publications, such as Palm Beach Post, Palm Beach Illustrated Magazine, and Luxury Home Magazine. In 2022, Telchin and Nolting were named the Faces of Luxury Real Estate by Palm Beach Illustrated magazine.
“We’re not driven by the sale or the numbers; we’re driven by the people,” says Eric. “We see them all the time in the community. We all live here. Often we’re doing multiple transactions with the same clients.”
And those clients walk away pleased with the experience.
“This was our 11th house to sell, East Coast, West Coast, North, and South,” says John Hayes, who, along with partner, Jean, recently used The Telchin Group to sell their house in Ibis. “Eric was the best agent we have ever had. He exceeded our expectations.”

-Eric Telchin,
The Telchin Group LLC
The Telchin Group checks all those boxes. Founded in 2013 by Eric Telchin and his parents, Stephen and Barbara—who are still active in the business today--Eric and his husband and Telchin Group colleague, Logan Nolting, have watched the area, and the market change. They have established themselves all over the county, but particularly in Ibis, Bay Hill Estates where they are top brokers. The Telchin Group team also includes Nolting, who combines real estate experience with a background in luxury sales and hospitality; Devin Buoniello, the PGA National Specialist who takes all branding and quality of work over to the neighboring market; and Josie Newhouse, who has been a crucial part of The Telchin Group’s real estate transactions in and outside Ibis since 2013. Together they have built a trusted network of lenders, contractors, inspectors, decorators, property management specialists, and others who can help ease the process of buying or selling a home.
When it comes to writing listings, Eric has a creative advantage: he is also a published author of children’s books, including See a Heart, Share a Heart (Penguin), The Black and White Factory and The Color Factory (Little Bee). Eric understands the power of the written word. In fact, one of The Telchin Group’s listings sold above asking price, directly from a vivid property description, with no photos.
But beyond their creative expertise, intimate knowledge of the business and the market, and global marketing reach, The Telchin Group understand that real estate is all about people.
Real estate is by nature an incredibly competitive field. Consider the hot market we’re experiencing today, with homes staying on the market less than a month — competition can become vicious. Though it’s often seen as a cutthroat industry, The Telchin Group seeks to change that narrative by consistently doing right by the client. Communication is key, which is why Telchin brokers are available to clients 24/7 with rapid response times. A reputation for adhering to ethical standards has established trust and recognition for The Telchin Group throughout the community. Sellers, contractors, bankers, mortgage officers, and other Realtors know that transactions will be handled properly when working with Telchin Group.
Giving back to the community is also important to the team at The Telchin Group. In addition to being the largest resident real estate/corporate donor to Ibis Charities, year after year, Eric also is on the Board of Directors for the Creative Center for Education, a prominent and well respected arts education charity. CCE’s annual event will be hosted on April 9, where students will showcase creative projects inspired by Eric’s most recent book release, The Color Factory. The purpose of the gala is to raise both awareness and funds for the Center for Creative Education’s national curriculum initiatives, so that students across the country can benefit from an arts-informed curriculum.
