NEREJ’s 60th Anniversary: Scott Pralinsky, Grow Associates

When did you discover the New England Real Estate Journal? We’re relative newcomers to the New England Real Estate Journal, being an organization that focuses on providing people of all abilities with opportunities. But in 2021, we purchased the building that we had been renting some space from, gaining an additional 21,000 s/f in the process! Now celebrating our 50^th year, we’re excited to start developing that space to provide additional opportunities for individuals with developmental disabilities that the organization serves as well as the greater Randolph and South Shore communities, which will provide more opportunities for integration, acceptance, and inclusion in the process.

In what way has New England Real Estate Journal been a benefit to you and your business? NEREJ has become a great resource for us as we think more about the opportunities in our newly expanded space, and what we might need to make those possibilities a reality!

How long have you been affiliated with the commercial real estate industry? Our purchase of our building at 68 Mazzeo Dr. in Randolph really marks the moment we entered in the commercial real estate space.  (Although earlier in my career I was also a residential and commercial mortgage broker!)
