David Craven's talent for real estate marketing and sales originates from a diverse background. Educated as an engineer at Wolverton University, England, David was awarded Engineer of the Year in the United Kingdom before he was 21 years of age. His adventurous spirit brought him to Miami, Florida, where he worked for and eventually co-owned Creech Brothers Construction, building mainly in the Kendal area of South Florida. While living in Miami, David also owned a Scuba/Dive Operation in Tavernier, Florida, taking full advantage of the beauty of the Florida Keys. With extensive knowledge of engineering, building and construction, David chose to switch gears to sales, and accepted the position of Director of Sales for Brookman-Fels, a true luxury custom home builder. During his time with Brookman-Fels, David won the coveted Fame, Pinnacle, Aurora, and the most-sought after America's Best Builder awards. He was also voted one of South Florida's 40 Under 40 Most Likely to Succeed. Accepting an offer from Burg and Silvester Builders in Palm Beach Gardens to assume the role of Director of Sales, David moved his family to Palm Beach County. During his time with Burg and Silvester, David was again recognized by his community, winning the GCBA Builder of the Year Palm Beach County Award. Burg and Silvester built custom luxury residences in communities including Nature's Hideaway and Milling?s Cay. In North Palm Beach, David was offered and accepted the prestigious position of Director of Sales for Jack Nicklaus at the ultra-exclusive The Bear's Club in Jupiter. Over the next 7 years, David oversaw the sale of $300,000,000 in sales to a discerning clientele that included professional athletes, Fortune 500 CEOs, as well as stage and television actors. David understands and respects the privacy and personal security of his clientele. After completion of sales at The Bear's Club, David chose to re-enter the Palm Beaches residential sales market, and chose to affiliate with William Raveis Real Estate to capitalize on their penchant for luxury marketing. David's personal time is centered on family, especially his daughter Isabella, currently attending Wake Forest University in North Carolina, and sports, most notably soccer. Having been born and raised in Wolverton, UK, David remains a huge fan of the Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club, more affectionately known as the Wolves. He currently serves our community as the Executive President of the Palm Beach Gardens Youth Athletic Association, and Director of TOPS soccer for special needs children, as well as a Board member of the Palm Beach Gardens Predators Soccer Club. David can be reached at 561-262-2696.
