Mitchell Adler — Broker,

Best of Miami Beach (BHI, FL) &

Associate Broker – Janet Adler Realty (NY, NY)

Mitchell is driven by creativity and an expert ability to cut through the noise in a competitive marketplace. Whatever challenges you face, he brings the vision, experience, and relentless dedication needed to make the impossible probable.

• A History of Bold Innovation: Before entering Manhattan real estate in 1992, Mitchell was a top producer in corporate sales. Earning top ranks across sales contests and instructing sales across three and a half states, he famously approached IBM with the ADLER Satellite III portable typewriter. Despite initial laughter in the room, he walked out 30 minutes later with an order for six units—ultimately selling 200,000 machines and generating $100 million in wholesale revenue over two years.

• Real Estate Ingenuity: Transitioning from Feathered Nest and Halstead in Manhattan, Mitchell mastered high-volume, high-stakes transactions. Early in his career, when a property appraised at only $550,000 due to needed repairs, he thought outside the box, listed it “as is” for $995,000, and successfully closed it at $1 million—nearly double its appraised value. Whether using a sunset photo and a 60-day patience incentive to win over a hesitant buyer, or personally navigating city hall permitting desks to clear a cloud on a title in under 24 hours, Mitchell turns roadblocks into closed deals.

• The “Living in Art” Philosophy: Mitchell pioneered the concept of emphasizing the experiential journey of your home over dry technical specs, a strategy so compelling it earned feature promotion in Unique Homes. He is also an innovator outside of real estate, holding a patent for a multi-purpose sport and leisure garment (US Patent 6,175,964).
• Dedicated Public Service: Following 9/11, Mitchell joined the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary. Logging over 3,300 hours on the water and reaching the level of Boat Forces, he earned more than 45 medals and ribbons, including three Crewman of the Year awards and a life-saving honor. He also pioneered a volunteer culinary program that evolved into a permanent field galley standard recognized globally at Coast Guard Headquarters, earning him a medal for Achievement in Professionalism and Leadership.

Mitchell is about creativity. He is expert in being heard in a noisy marketplace. Whatever challenges that you face he has the vision, experience and dedication to solving the fiercest of challenges. Doing the impossible is probable.

They said it can’t be done: Before entering the real estate industry in 1992, Mitchell was a top producer in the business machines sector. He took a bold step by presenting the ADLER Satellite III portable typewriter to IBM, the world’s largest business machines manufacturer. Upon entering their NYC office, one man in a blue suit burst into laughter, prompting the entire room to join in. Less than 30 minutes later, he walked out with an initial order of six units. Over the next two years, he sold 200,000 machines to IBM, generating $100 million in wholesale revenue.

Mitchell brought this can-do attitude to Feathered Nest, the largest rental agency in Manhattan, where he worked with approximately five clients daily, exposing him to hundreds of properties each month. This experience seamlessly transitioned into his sales role at Halstead.

A notable achievement early in his career came when his patent attorney referred a seller. While similar units sold for $750,000 fully renovated, this particular unit needed work and didn’t appraise above $550,000. Thinking outside the box, he listed it at $995,000 ‘as is,’ and ultimately sold it for $1 million Almost double its value.

Creativity in Real Estate

Real Estate crosses many disciplines and is complex. Having experience and insight has often come to the clients rescue. One such example in the sale of a 2/2 with den had a buyer back out because there was a tenant for 60 days after closing. After he walked away I sent a picture of the sunset with the caption, “This could be yours forever if you’re willing to wait 60 days.” He made an accepted offer the next morning .

It also had an outstanding workorder causing cloud on the title and making it nontransferrable. The sellers lawers and title agent had taken 20 of the 30 days to clear title before the sale is canceled. The seller was paniced and called me for advice. After gaining understanding from her a call was placed to her attorney to suggest an easy solution. He declined the suggestion which was reported to the seller who in turn asked me to execute the solution. After receiveing her email authorization I contacted the work order desk at city hall and left a message.

The next moring the permit was satisfied and title cleared. Installing a 4th leg at an electric meter is impossible FPL only delivers 3 legs. Sale went through.

Mitchell also innovated the “Living in Art” concept, which emphasizes the experience of your home. over mere technical details. This approach proved so effective that an advertisement in Unique Homes, initially placed on page 380, was promoted over 100 pages forward due to its compelling nature, adding significant value to clients on tight budgets.

During his corporate career, Mitchell consistently ranked first in every sales contest and served as a sales instructor across three and a half states.

Mitchell’s work in creating a galley of his design involved 2,600 hours over six months. This effort serves as a model for the Coast Guard Auxiliary’s highest honor, the New Auxiliarist of the Year award, with the recipient’s name engraved at USCG Headquarters. He has accumulated over 45 medals and ribbons, including a life-saving award.
