NEREJ’s 60th Anniversary: Chris White, Road to Responsibility

Chris White
President and CEO
Road to Responsibility

 

When did you discover the New England Real Estate Journal? Although our organization focuses on supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and helping them achieve full, rich, and rewarding lives, we have also been great fans of New England Real Estate Journal for the last several years. As we celebrate our 35th anniversary this year, we congratulate NEREJ on the very impressive milestone of 60 years – and looking forward to many more!

In what way has New England Real Estate Journal been a benefit to you and your business? Over the years, Road to Responsibility has made significant investments in programs, technology and building upgrades to improve the quality of life for everyone involved within the organization. In particular, we have focused on investments in our residential homes, creating “smart homes” with assistive technology implemented to promote client independence. NEREJ has been a great reference for us as we make these improvements, as well as a wonderful outlet in which to showcase some of these features and help others think about how incorporating assistive technology can benefit people in different ways.

How long have you been affiliated with the commercial real estate industry? As we own or manage 49 residences as well as co-operative and supportive living apartments and nine day-service locations that focus on education, employment, and community enrichment throughout the South Shore and South Coast of Mass., we have been affiliated with the commercial real estate industry since our founding 35 years ago.

Long-term interest rates have fallen by 100 basis points, and the market is normalizing. In December of 2022 I wrote an article about investing in a high interest rate, high inflation market. Since then, inflation has cooled off, and the Fed has begun lowering their funds rate.
