REAL ESTATE
BOSTON REAL ESTATE COLLABORATIVE (BREC)
Boston Real Estate Collaborative (BREC) was founded in 2010 by Brent Berc, Will Avanessian and Patrick Haydon on the premise that a more collaborative development process, between owner, developer, architect and builder, would result in smarter planning, a more efficient design and construction process and ultimately better projects. Using this approach and marrying the partner’s expertise under one roof, BREC has built a track record of success that has earned it a reputation as one of Boston’s premier, local development companies. In 2012, with the development company finding its stride but lacking a property management solution that fit the company’s needs, Will and Brent made strategic hires to bring property management in-house. BREC and its affiliates own and operate hundreds of units in the Boston-area, including units dedicated to affordable, market-rate and furnished housing. What started in 2010 as a collaboration of good people, has evolved into a collaboration of great companies.
