Howard Freedland is a man on a mission. His first stop out of college was the big city of Chicago where within the first 2 weeks of moving there he met his wife, went to his first Cubs game, and began his first job at a prestigious and world renowned wine retailer. Right away, he had a sense of ownership and accomplishment to stand on his own two feet. Not only did he learn life skills and work harder than he ever had in his entire life, he also connected with people who inspired him to always treat your work like an artistic masterpiece bearing your name. Fast forward over 20 years in Palm Beach County, and Howard Freedland is someone you will love getting to know. He talks to everyone. He knows everyone. His business experience, business negotiations skill set, and area knowledge are second to none. And you will love his demeanor and sense of humor. Howard Freedland’s name is the name of a business done right.
HIGHEST LEVEL
When he worked in the wine industry, he had a specific encounter with a winemaker who came up to him with so much passion about the work she was producing that he wanted the product because of the passion. That is what Howard is all about. Working at the highest level he can be extremely passionate about what he is producing, providing a real experience for everyone involved.
SPACE ORGANIZING YOUR HOME
In 2000, Howard moved his family and worked with his parents at their company named Space Organizers. Part retail store (think a small Container Store) and part working for builders and creating custom built-ins for homes and families. A big lesson that Howard learned from his Dad is that the only thing you wake up with in the morning is your integrity. Integrity means not only hard work, but work done right, honestly, and to the best of your ability for all parties involved. Lucky for us, Howard caught the Real Estate bug! From his experience working in space organization, Howard truly understands how to visualize spaces and understands costs better than anyone. Echo Fine Properties owner, Jeff Lichtenstein knew Howard would be a perfect addition to the Echo pod. Howard believes that when opportunity approaches you, it's a gift. It’s a gift for us too, as Howard has it all from business to passion to personal when it comes to being the best of Real Estate agents.
THE DAD LIFE
As Ferris Bueller says, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while you could miss it.” Howard and his wife, Tracey, have two sons, Jared and Ben, both of whom are currently in university. In his family, he instills an attitude to never ever be afraid to try your hardest at everything. The Freedland family is very active within the community with martial arts and volunteering. He is very honest with his family about his challenges and successes that come in life. This allows him to face problems and overcome them. Howard has a sense of humor as well with the segment on his Facebook page called the Daily Report (also a podcast) where he posts bits of hopeful cynicism, using comedy to connect with people. Howard is an amazing communicator and active listener, and he is committed to keep improving his skills, as it is a life-long pursuit.

“Howard and Sophie with Echo Fine Properties were wonderful to work with. We owned our home for 20 years but didn't feel like updating before moving. Howard gave us positive feedback and worked within our concerns. He fought for us to get the price we were looking for as well. Howard and Sophie provided beautiful colorful brochures, online advertising and a very successful open House. We sold in nine days after a bidding war between multiple offers eventually netted us our asking price. Howard always treated our home as if it were his and because of the "white glove service" we consider Howard and Sophie true assets to the realtor team at Echo Fine Properties!”

“This letter will serve as my very high recommendation of Real Estate Agent Howard Freedland. He assisted my partner and I with the lease of a large commercial space in North Palm Beach. While I have experience with residential real estate, I cannot say the same about commercial real estate and I needed an expert to assist me. Howard was referred to me and was an excellent choice. I have worked with many real estate brokers and agents on many different real estate transactions over the years and can say with confidence that Howard was by far one of the best agent/ brokers I have used.
I can't say enough about Howard's professionalism and knowledge within the industry. He has integrity and is tenacious, always keeping the clients' best interests in mind. Our real estate transaction was complicated, and we had several issues with the property management. Even after the deal was complete Howard continued to assist me with these issues which was outside the scope of his responsibilities. One of the qualities I respected the most was his no- nonsense style. As a busy executive, I don't have time to waste. He understood this and would get to the point quickly, yet professionally, always respecting our time. Howard was very responsive to questions, often responding immediately to inquiries, even those at odd hours.
In the complex world of commercial real estate, I highly encourage you to give Howard a try. ”

“Howard and Michael are bulldogs. Since working with our company, they communicate regularly and often about our business needs. The deals that they bring to us are well thought out and they have created opportunities off-market that suit our expansion model properly. They are relentless.”

“Howard was very responsive to our Saturday call about a commercial office space we found in Jupiter. He was initially told the property was under contract but he continued to inquire, only to learn that the office was in fact available. Howard coordinated a showing and came prepared with market information for comparisons. He kept strong communication throughout the purchase process and was easy to reach, which I really appreciated. He even checked in with us after the closing. Thanks Howard for the solid representation.”

“Just wanted to express how wonderful it was to work with our fellow Commercial agent, Howard Freedland on a Commercial transaction. I reached out yesterday to Howard as my client wanted to purchase a property in Ormond Beach. He jumped right on it and worked all day with several back and forth negotiations. He was able to get this transaction under contract. Happy to say my client was very very pleased with Howard and we are fully executed! I was so impressed with his professionalism and knowledge ….
I would highly recommend to add to your portfolio Buyers/Sellers in the commercial arena. Howard is tremendous and the results speak for themselves…
Please reach out to him if you have any prospects. He’s a dream to work with. ”
