When did you discover the New England Real Estate Journal? Many, many years ago. I can’t recall when.
In what way has New England Real Estate Journal been a benefit to you and your business? The NEREJ has been a consistent and highly visible periodical for the development, design and construction industries. By covering the issues facing the development of real estate across New England with a heavy focus on eastern MA, it’s a one-stop go-to resource for professionals in these industries. Hancock’s project managers and marketing team use this resource daily to follow the industry, adapt to changing conditions and chart new strategies.
How long have you been affiliated with the commercial real estate industry? I’ve been in the industry for 37 years. I’m also proud to say that like NEREJ, Hancock Associates is celebrating a special anniversary this year. We’ll be turning 45 next month.
