The Trump family has never been shy about its business ambitions, and it seems the youngest member is no exception. As President Donald Trump returns to the White House, new business filings show that his son, Barron Trump, took his first steps into the real estate industry last year.
Barron, 18, incorporated a real estate business in July 2024. The move came at the same time his older brother, Eric Trump, also launched a previously unreported firm. Barron’s venture, however, was short-lived.
Trump, Fulcher & Roxburgh Capital Inc., the real estate company associated with Barron, was established on July 15, 2024, and dissolved shortly after his father’s presidential election victory on November 14.
Cameron Roxburgh, Barron’s partner and fellow alumnus of the elite Palm Beach school Oxbridge Academy, informed Newsweek that their company, a premium real estate development firm, was temporarily dissolved to minimize media scrutiny during the election period.
The firm, which specializes in upscale properties and golf courses across Utah, Arizona, and Idaho, plans to relaunch in the spring. Roxburgh mentioned that while President Trump has not invested financially in the venture, he has provided private advice and supports the project. Although there is interest in aligning the company as a subsidiary of the Trump Organization, no official plans have been made yet.
When contacted for a statement, Roxburgh, who attended high school with Barron, told The New York Post, “We are working out logistics,” and added that they “might relaunch” in the spring.
Eric Trump, who has been deeply involved in the Trump Organization, has not publicly commented on his younger brother’s business move but continues to expand his own ventures.
While Barron has largely remained out of the public eye compared to his siblings, his foray into business signals a new chapter. The young Trump has often been seen alongside his father at key campaign events but has yet to make any public statements about his professional aspirations.
The Trump family’s business dealings have long been a subject of scrutiny, and with Donald Trump’s return to the presidency, questions are sure to arise regarding potential conflicts of interest. However, those close to the family insist that Barron’s brief business endeavor was entirely separate from his father’s political career.
Barron, born in 2006, is the youngest son of President Trump and First Lady Melania. He is the tallest member of the Trump family, at 6 feet 9 inches. Barron is currently a freshman at New York University’s Stern School of Business.
Barron played a crucial role in advising on media strategies and outreach during President Trump’s 2024 campaign. He was instrumental in suggesting his father appear on popular podcasts, such as those hosted by Joe Rogan and Theo Von, which helped expand the campaign’s reach among younger voters.
Despite his high-profile upbringing, Barron has largely avoided the political limelight, focusing instead on his education. He maintains a close relationship with his mother, Melania, who has been protective of his privacy over the years.
On Monday, during his father’s inauguration as the 47th President of the United States, Barron attracted a large amount of public attention, however.
