Born in Clare MI he lived in Pontiac until five years old when moved with family to Saline MI. Ben Torres spent most of his childhood there with his mother and two brothers. After attending Saline high he went on to Eastern Michigan University.

Selling off some of the real-estate assets and also some consolidating and with a lot of hard work his long-fought dream of opening his own office came to fruition in 2012.
