Since its inception, ROVR Development has been committed to transforming the landscape of South Florida. With roots tracing back to 2015, our company has grown from a local builder into a nationally recognized developer.
Driven by an unwavering dedication to architectural innovation and community enrichment, ROVR’s work stands as a testament to our legacy and future ambitions.
ROVR Development is currently overseeing multiple projects under construction or set to break ground. Among them is The River Rapids, a two-phase, 593-unit multifamily development along the Miami River waterfront. Nearby, Delaware Parkway expands the same neighborhood with a three-phase, 1,000-unit multifamily project.
Other notable developments include District 225, a 343-unit condominium in Downtown Miami; Griffin 441, a 180-unit multifamily community in Hollywood, Florida; and Arvella Apartments, a 290-unit multifamily project on the Aventura waterfront. ROVR is also advancing College Station, a 1,200-unit multifamily initiative in Downtown Miami, Pompano Beach site, a 300-unit multifamily development in Pompano Beach, Florida, and the newly acquired Doral Gateway site, a shovel-ready 3-acre site in the heart of Doral, Florida.
At ROVR, we believe every project is an opportunity to elevate lives, inspire communities, and shape a more dynamic Miami.
Founded in 2015 by Miami real estate veterans Oscar Rodriguez and Ricardo Vadia, the ROVR Development team brings more than 35 years’ combined experience in the acquisition, planning, management, and development of residential communities.
Individually, their vast experience spanning a variety of development disciplines, extensive market knowledge and impeccable track record catapulted them to the top of South Florida’s real estate industry.
Oscar Rodriguez is a highly respected professional in the Development Industry in Florida. With over 25 years of experience, Oscar has played key roles in acquisition, financing, design, construction, and execution of a wide variety of development projects throughout the state.
Prior to founding ROVR, Oscar worked for 13 years at the Related Group of Florida where he served as Senior Vice-President of Development. As such, he oversaw high-rise developments in Florida from the conceptual phase to completed construction. He led development teams – financial institutions, general contractors, architects, engineers, and designers – in the realization of The Related Group projects. Oscar was also responsible for the overall community and government relations of The Related Group.
As a civic and political activist in the South Florida area, Oscar has participated in several important organizations including the Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce, the Citizens Redistricting Advisory Board for Dade County, the City of Miami Planning and Zoning Appeals Board, the Downtown Development Authority of the City of Miami, Vice President of the Builder’s Association of South Florida and as an Executive Board Member of the Urban Land Institute.
He has been an active fund-raiser for many Federal, State and Municipal political campaigns. Oscar was born in Miami of Cuban parents and has three daughters.
Ricardo Vadia, Founding Partner of ROVR Development, is a Miami born and raised executive who has successfully completed numerous projects by strategically acquiring land, and forging relationships with institutional investors and construction lenders.
Prior to ROVR Development, Ricardo founded Vadia Development in 2011. Amongst other projects, the company is recognized for developing 109 Tower and 4th Street Commons, which combined consisted of over 1,100 student housing beds in an emerging neighborhood within the City of Sweetwater.
The company worked closely with Sweetwater to realize its vision for the University City District, an area of the city located immediately north of Florida International University’s Modesto Maidique Campus. The newly created district allowed for the development of buildings with increased densities for certain projects, including mixed-use, high-rise, student
housing.
Vadia’s developments were the first to be delivered within this district where such projects were unprecedented. The result has been a development of a sub-market of housing and new commercial uses which have delivered the envisioned integration of the day-to-day activities of the City of Sweetwater and FIU.
Before founding his own company, Ricardo Prior was a developer for 10 years with The Related Group, one of the nation’s largest developers. At Related, he oversaw the development of over 2,500 condominium and multi-family units.
With each project, Ricardo oversaw all phases of development, including financial modeling, market analysis, land acquisition, partnership agreements, design programming, entitlements, leasing, sales and marketing, budget creation and management, construction, and asset management.
Ricardo received his MBA from Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management, and a BBA from Florida International University.
