Bio
Roy is a native Massachusetts resident, having grown up in Chelsea. He graduated from Babson College with a double major in Marketing and International Business Studies. After selling his start-up business, Roy obtained his real estate sales license in 2003 and later his real estate broker license in 2007. Most recently, he received his Certificate in Real Estate Finance from Boston University.
Roy started at MBRE as a marketing co-project manager for Keen Lofts, Industrie Lofts, and the Box Works Condos. These projects each required individual comprehensive marketing plans targeting specific groups with key demographics, brand and image creation, and website and content development. His expertise, intimate market knowledge, and networking skills were fully utilized in these mixed-income residential developments focused on first-time homebuyers.
Roy also worked as a project manager for the Massachusetts Department of Transportation Office of Real Estate and Asset Development. In this capacity, he assisted in the disposition, leasing, or selling of Mass DOT-controlled properties. It was in this role that Roy worked hand-in-hand with large, well-known Boston area developers, elected officials, local municipalities, and community groups in the development of Mass DOT-controlled properties while ensuring compliance with guidelines. This role included assisting in analyzing the development feasibility of each proposal, analyzing the capacity of the proposers to execute the proposals, and analyzing the financial component of the proposals.
In addition to his real estate practice, Roy has shown his strong belief in community service by serving in public office as a Planning Board member, Licensing Board Commissioner, and City Council member. He is currently serving as a Trustee on the Chelsea Community Board and City Councilor-at-Large.
Whether you are a first-time buyer, selling or buying your next home, looking for an investment, or developing a large-scale residential project, Roy's expertise, knowledge, and excellent interpersonal and negotiation skills can be of service to you as a developer, investor, seller, or individual buyer.
