Built from experience, driven by results

After 15 years of buying, selling, and developing properties across Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island, we noticed a fundamental problem in the real estate industry: most agents focus on transactions, not outcomes.

We've been in your shoes—analyzing rent rolls, calculating cash-on-cash returns, managing renovations, and navigating complex 1031 exchanges. We understand that real estate isn't just about property; it's about building wealth, creating cash flow, and achieving financial independence.

That's why we created The Hive: a brokerage that operates on the same principles we use in our own investments—rigorous analysis, transparent communication, and a long-term perspective. Whether you're buying your first property or managing a portfolio, we bring the same analytical approach that we'd apply to our own deals.

Win the right home—without overpaying

• Education-forward guidance on financing, contingencies, and local norms
• Negotiation plan that balances competitiveness and protection

Live for less while you build equity

We help you find 2–4 unit properties, run the rent-vs-mortgage math, and structure deals that let you live in one unit while tenants cover your costs. BRRRR roadmap included.

• Property search: 2–4 units with strong rent potential
• Cashflow analysis: rent comps, expense modeling, FHA/conventional options
• Scaling strategy: BRRRR, refinance timing, portfolio planning

Bigger projects. Smarter execution.

We help developers find land, validate feasibility, navigate entitlements, and execute disposition strategy from single lots to subdivisions.

Portfolio underwriting for the long game

Buyers: We underwrite rent rolls like we're signing the check ourselves. Cap rates, NOI, debt service—but also deferred CapEx, turnover trends, and competitive sets. Sellers: We package assets for institutional and private buyers with clean data rooms and realistic expectations.

• Rent roll analysis with unit-by-unit breakdown
• Market positioning and competitive set analysis
• Capital improvement planning and ROI modeling
