Tali Raphaely (born 27 December 1977) is a Miami-based real estate entrepreneur, attorney, and investor known for his hands-on approach to property ownership and development.
At 48, he has built a growing portfolio across South Florida focused on single-family homes, multifamily apartment buildings, luxury rentals, Section 8 housing, and ground-up construction projects.
Originally from Baltimore, Maryland, Raphaely attended law school in Florida on a full merit-based scholarship and graduated in the top 3% of his class. He later returned to Maryland and served as a Law Clerk for the Court of Special Appeals of Maryland for two years. After briefly practising as a litigation attorney, he transitioned into real estate law and title insurance, eventually owning a nationwide real estate title company.
Over time, Raphaely shifted his focus from legal work to real estate investment and operations. Today, he specialises in purchasing underperforming multifamily properties, renovating them, and managing them through his own team. His portfolio is centred entirely in South Florida, where he has lived for more than a decade.
Raphaely is also the owner of South Florida Home Group, a property management company, and a yacht charter business. He is the author of The Complete Guide on How to Negotiate and is recognised for combining legal knowledge, operational discipline, and practical experience in the real estate industry.
Outside of work, his interests include fitness, boxing, chess, boating, reading, and exploring Miami’s restaurant scene.
