RICHARD E MURRELL

OWNER / BROKER

When Richard Murrell began his career in real estate over 13 years ago, he never imagined it would become the dual-industry leader that it is today. What began as an interest in residential sales has become so much more. Today, 1M Group boasts a superior reputation and an elevated level of service that is unmatched in this area.

After a thriving fast-paced career at companies including Continental Properties, Keller Williams and Becker Realty, Richard quickly parlayed his knowledge of residential and commercial real estate to a business concept that encompassed all the needs of his high-end clientele including real estate sales, estate management and renovation/construction management. Richard’s early success in residential sales has continued to increase yearly. Not only has he sold one of the most expensive properties on Singer Island not once but twice, but he has also managed several editorial-worthy construction projects including the 3-year build-out of a penthouse at The Ritz-Carlton Singer Island, many remodeling projects of vacation homes in Frenchman’s Reserve, and many more.

Top-rate service has always been something that Richard holds in high value. As an avid traveler with a keen eye for design, Richard knew his niche clientele were an elite group that expected a certain level of exceptional service. 1M Group’s target clients have luxury vacations homes in some of the area’s most exclusive communities and neighborhoods. This clienteles’ market focus in Florida includes the coastal areas of Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, Jupiter, Singer Island, Jupiter Island and other exclusive South Florida locations.

Attracted to the real estate industry because of the constant change and relationship-building aspects, the 30-something Palm Beach Shores resident’s desire to explore a new kind of property company grew as his exposure to the industry did too. It was Richard’s progressive thinking, thirst for knowledge and trustworthy nature that made 1M Group grow so quickly. He was born and raised in Florida, but it was Richard’s global travels, design skills and expertise, and entrepreneurial temperament that attracted his clients to his company. His dedication and commitment to his clients didn’t go unnoticed and those clients quickly referred him to colleagues, friends and family many times over. These days, Richard’s hand-selected team knows just how to handle his ultra-exclusive clientele and their specific taste levels.

“It’s the finishing touches that make 1M Group what it is,” says Richard. “Whether it’s fresh flowers in the estate homes upon arrival, or expert local knowledge about the real estate market and specific communities in the area, we want our clients to think of 1M Group as their own private high-end concierge service.”

Currently, 1M Group is expanding at a rapid pace. With over 20 properties and 20 different families to manage on the estate side, and several top listings in the area on the real estate side.
