As a child raised on a farm in the small town of Pierz, MN, Doug developed a rigorous work ethic, strong technical base and passion for construction theory, fixing buildings and constructing cabinets in the family chicken coop. After building his first house at 17, Doug aspired to apply his ambition and “hustle” to the construction industry, ultimately founding Boser Construction, Inc. (BCI) in 1996.
Since then, Doug has earned his place as leader of the commercial building industry in Central Minnesota. In the aftermath of the Great Recession, Doug took a bold leap to combine his passion for construction with his increasing interest in real estate. Inventure’s earliest commercial development projects ran alongside BCI until 2017, when Doug sold BCI to two longtime employees and shifted his attention fully to Inventure.
As Founder, President and CEO of Inventure, clients look to Doug for trustworthy advice and focused solutions on real estate and development opportunities. His extensive commercial construction experience, design expertise and over 30 years in the industry set him apart as an advisor and give him the priceless insight necessary to successfully craft value-driven solutions that create long-term benefits for his clients and his community.
Doug knows first-hand how daunting it can be to navigate the complexities of the commercial real estate industry without guidance, and hopes to protect his clients’ time, money and peace of mind as their trusted advisor. One of Doug’s most cherished values is that of follow-through, and he is committed to continue delivering on Inventure’s promise of excellence by providing sound advice and a proven track record of successful deals with high-profile clients.
Outside the office, Doug proudly serves on the CentraCare Foundation board and is a founding member of the Greater St. Cloud Development Corporation. Doug has a vision to fuel the long-term growth and vitality of the St. Cloud region through commercial development, and looks forward to Inventure’s future as a key component of the area’s success.
