09 Ski Shop Kid to Billion Dollar Brokerage Ben Fisher

In this episode of Ski In, Sell Out, Max and Lauren sit down with Ben Fisher, one of the founders of Christie’s International Real Estate Park City. Ben’s path is rare — he got his first “referral fee” at 16 working in a ski shop, skipped the typical post-college wandering years, and jumped into real estate full-time by his early 20s.

Ben opens up about:

  • Growing up in Park City after his dad took a massive career swing to move the family west park-city-real-estate-journey-t…
  • What it’s like to build a brokerage from absolutely nothing (literally no carpet, no accounting, no systems) park-city-real-estate-journey-t…
  • How Christie's founders fit together and why the partnership works without ego or drama park-city-real-estate-journey-t…
  • The pressure of raising kids in the Park City “bubble” and fighting entitlement with real-world experiences park-city-real-estate-journey-t…
  • Being an introvert running operations behind the scenes — and why people listen when he does speak up park-city-real-estate-journey-t…
  • What he actually enjoys about real estate now, 15+ years in

This one is honest, grounded, and a great look inside the people shaping modern Park City real estate.
