Since 2014, they have been providing clients exactly that with high-quality, individualized solutions. Chris has nearly two decades of commercial real estate experience on a local, regional, and national scale and specializes in landlord and tenant representation, retail acquisitions and dispositions, site selection, and retail roll-out assignments.

Recently, he curated and procured 18 tenant food stalls at the 25,000 sf Food Hall at The Hub on Causeway. Lastly, Chris also works hand-in-hand with local entrepreneurial tenants like Blackbird Doughnuts and Sullivan’s Castle Island to develop brick-and-mortar strategy plans.
