To prepare for the next phase in his career, Dave completed all certification levels for registration as a Realtor and subsequently as a Broker and Mortgage Broker. Dave quickly established himself as one of the top realtors in Kitchener-Waterloo, and team leader of the Dave Roach Team.

While working with RE/MAX Twin City Realty, he was a member of RE/MAX Platinum Club for sales achievement from 2005 to 2011. This prestigious award is granted to only 5 percent of realtors worldwide. In 2008, Dave was inducted into the RE/MAX Hall of Fame.

In 2018, Dave decided to take on a new role as Waterloo Branch Manager of Red & White Realty. Red & White is a rapidly growing local real estate brokerage with over 115 realtors.

Dave takes great pride in his family, and enjoys spending time with them. In 2018, Dave celebrated 50 years of marriage to his high-school sweetheart, Judy. Dave and Judy have three married children and are the proud grandparents of 9 grandchildren.

Dave and Judy are passionate volunteers and have served with Correctional Services of Canada, supporting numerous chaplaincy functions at a local federal prison. Dave has also served with numerous charitable organizations at the Board of Director level including Chairman and President. In his spare time, Dave enjoys playing golf and travelling with Judy and the family.
