Join Real Estate Investors of York (REIY) on Tuesday, November 24th, as we welcome Ben Sutton , the founder of The Bakery Entertainment Complex in West York.
Ben's real estate journey started right here in York County, working alongside his father renovating and remodeling houses. After graduating from Red Lion High School and Monmouth University, he headed to New York City, where he built a career in commercial real estate, working on major transactions including the $206 million sale of the former Jehovah's Witnesses headquarters in Brooklyn.
Eventually, Ben returned home to York, bringing that experience with him. Since then, he's helped expand his family's real estate portfolio and taken on his most ambitious project yet: transforming the former J.B. Fishel Bakery into a massive entertainment, dining, and hospitality complex.
We'll sit down with Ben to hear about his journey, the opportunities and challenges of tackling a project of this scale, and what he's learned about real estate investing, development, and entrepreneurship along the way.
From renovating houses with his dad to major commercial deals in NYC and a massive redevelopment project back home, we're excited to hear everything that happened in between!
Whether you're buying your first rental, growing your portfolio, or dreaming about your own development project, this is a meeting you won't want to miss!
Whether you're working toward your first rental property or looking to grow an existing portfolio, this is a great opportunity to learn from someone who has built a substantial real estate business right here in our backyard.
Meeting Details: Admission: Free for REIY members and first-time guests. $10 for returning nonmembers.
For those of you who haven't been to one of our meetings before, Real Estate Investors of York is a group of real local investors who actually invest in real estate on a daily basis in the York County area. We aren't TV personalities, and we aren't hawking classes or CDs (what's a CD?), we are just real people who are working to build a future for ourselves and our families and we'd like to show you how you can do the same!
The first meeting is free for all new guests and only $10/mo for non-members. If you decide to become a member, you can save even more money and have access to tons of networking with industry professionals, two members only socials per year as well as a professionally drafted court tested lease (the same lease I use) and many other benefits!
