About

Modern Living Group at Compass.

Modern Living Group is a top-producing team at Compass specializing in luxury real estate. We’re experts who live here, spend our free time here, and know the market inside and out — and on the island specifically, that means knowing each section and each building by name.

With over $600 million sold, named a Compass top producer for seven consecutive years, a Top 50 medium team in Florida, and a Top 1% team in the nation, we’ve been selling Palm Beach since 2008 — from the Northend’s legacy lots to the oceanfront condominiums of South Palm Beach.

How We Work

A teams approach.

Most agents try to do everything for everyone. We built Modern Living Group the opposite way — with dedicated specialists on each side of the transaction, so the person guiding you is a true expert in exactly what you’re doing.

Listing Agents
A dedicated listing team focused solely on selling — pricing, preparation, and modern marketing.
Buyers’ Agents
A team of buyers’ agents focused solely on helping you find your home — true experts in that side of the transaction.
Rental Team
Seasonal and annual island rentals, handled with the same care as a sale.

That structure is backed by Compass — the largest residential brokerage in the country — and its national referral network, technology platform, and private exclusive inventory. On an island where many of the best opportunities never hit the open market, that reach matters.

Our island office sits at 150 Worth Avenue — Compass’s flagship Palm Beach office, on the avenue we write about on every page of this site. We don’t commute to Palm Beach — we work it, walk it, and live it.

For Sellers

Selling on the island.

Our dedicated listing team walks you through the process step-by-step — from the first walkthrough to the closing table.

We start with a detailed home analysis so you know exactly where your property sits in the market. We recommend trusted contractors when preparation will pay for itself. And we market with a modern playbook — professional photography and film, targeted digital campaigns, and the Compass network — built to get you the best price the market will bear.

Patrick Lafferty and Wolf Velasco bring vast, intricate knowledge of the Palm Beach market — section by section, building by building — and a track record to match: Modern Living Group has been named a Compass top producer for three consecutive years, a Top 50 Florida medium team, and a Top 1% team in the nation.

For Buyers

Buying on the island.

A team of buyers’ agents focused solely on helping you find your home — so they become true experts in that side of the transaction.

Palm Beach isn’t one market — it’s four. The Northend, Intown, the Estate Section, and South Palm Beach each live differently, price differently, and trade differently. We guide you section by section until the island’s geography matches the life you’re after, then building by building or street by street from there.

And because the island’s best opportunities often trade quietly, we put the Compass network and its private exclusive inventory to work — surfacing homes and residences you won’t find on a portal.
