From OHL Hockey to Commercial Real Estate | Young Entrepreneur Mindset | EP392
About this episode
Jason Dasilva discusses his transition from OHL hockey to commercial real estate and the lessons learned along the way.
In this episode of The Real Estate Podcast, Steve Cecchetto sits down with Jason Dasilva — OHL hockey player, CrossFit athlete, entrepreneur, and the young owner behind one of Milton’s most iconic local spots: The Ivy Arms. Jason shares how his competitive sports background shaped his mindset in business, why he decided to purchase the commercial building instead of continuing to rent, and the lessons he learned about commercial real estate investing at a young age. The conversation also dives into adapting through Covid, building strong tenant-landlord relationships, creating long-term value in real estate, and what makes The Ivy Arms such a staple in downtown Milton.
