Meet our leadership team
Barry K. Metcalf, Principal
Barry founded Aspens Senior Living in 2009 with Dean Eldridge with the intention to develop Class A independent living communities for active seniors. Prior to forming Aspens Senior Living, Barry was involved in multiple facets of the real estate industry, including multifamily brokerage, land development, land investment and senior housing development. He was a partner with Cadence Capital Partners, LP, which was formed to serve as a catalyst in real estate development and investment activities primarily in Dallas-Fort Worth. Cadence focused on land investments in Dallas-Fort Worth, which involved aggregating large tracts of land in the path of growth, entitling the land for its highest and best use, then selling to end users or contributing the land to a vertical development.
Barry has been personally involved in the acquisition, disposition, development and management of more than $350 million in real estate. Barry earned his Bachelor of Science from Texas Christian University.
