Real estate just happened to come into Greg's lap, while going to school he was working at State Street Corporation and quickly realized that this was not the job for him. Even though it was more in alignment with his educational pursuit, there was a need to pay for books and other expenses. Real estate was another opportunity that presented itself, it was almost accidental, he noticed an ad in the paper (Patriot Ledger) for 3A Apartments with a gentleman named Bob Birch (he and Bob are friends to this day and will always be grateful for Bob's introduction to this world of real estate) in the Wollaston area of Quincy. He quickly realized he had a knack for real estate, it was basically just communicating with people and solving their problems, and it provided flexibility while he was going to school and a good consistent cash flow for expenses. He finished school with honors. Real estate was much more up his alley as he could communicate with people and realized he could create his own destiny by being an entrepreneur, which was always one of his dreams in life. After being with Bob for many years, Greg decided he would like to open his own practice, even though he appreciated all of the experiences learned with Bob, Greg decided to move on. That’s when he opened ACB Realty, Inc. in February 2010. Since that date, the company has grown to a nine-person organization and he has acquired multiple pieces of real estate along the way including a mixed-use building in Stoughton where he renovated the entire building, which is currently the second office. Complete renovation with glass partitions, custom-made conference table, reception desk, fully modern facility with expansion for more. Greg is currently licensed to do business in Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Connecticut and expanding to other territories. The inclusion of a JD (real estate attorney) is within the horizon,
