Not surprisingly, some of his best friends are “Gators.” “I enjoy the camaraderie that heats up during football season in Florida.”

I want my clients to know they can trust me to give them my best investment ideas and all the details they need to know in order to make a sound investment. Leverage is key to investing in commercial real estate, but over-leveraging is never a good strategy. You have to watch supply/demand and always be one step ahead of the market.” Roy has had hands-on involvement in the design and development of some of this areas’ well known golf courses, including Quail Valley Golf Club and Eagle Marsh Golf Course.

Roy negotiated on behalf of FPL and put together one of its largest land assemblages in Florida.

Roy’s reputation in the commercial real estate business is second to none. His easy-going Florida style and his old-fashioned” My word is my bond” integrity, is one of the reasons Roy Bickford was hand-selected to join Commercial Real Estate, LLC of Vero Beach.
