Contemporary waterfront architecture in South Florida at blue hour

Private real estate advisory · South Florida

Real estate is more than what’s available.

It’s knowing what is worth considering.

Begin with perspective

A different starting point

Strong decisions begin with context, not a property search.

A search can show you what is listed. It cannot tell you what will age well, which details deserve scrutiny, or when the most valuable advice is to wait. That understanding comes from looking beyond the transaction.

The Advisory

Personal by design.

A deliberately boutique practice built around discretion, careful listening and relationships that extend far beyond a closing.

Working directly with the advisers doing the work creates room to question an assumption, investigate further or recommend waiting when that is the better answer.

Our advisory approach
Rick and Roxanna Urban

Private advisory, grounded in experience

A relationship built beyond the transaction.

Led by Roxanna and Rick Urban at ONE Sotheby’s International Realty, The Urban RE Group advises buyers, sellers and relocating clients through private residential real estate advisory across South Florida.

Much of the practice grows through repeat clients and referrals. That continuity shapes the work: careful evaluation, candid guidance, local knowledge and attention that continues after closing.
