The real estate mogul and reality TV star, who owns an estate and properties throughout the Hudson Valley, has hit the so-called "magic number" of delegates required for the Republican presidential nomination.

Trump, who was declared the party's presumptive nominee earlier this month, surpassed the 1,237 mark Thursday after unbound delegates from Colorado, North Dakota and Pennsylvania pledged to support him.

The Republican convention will be held Monday, July 18 through Thursday, July 21 in Cleveland.

Trump, who owns an estate in Bedford, also owns Trump National Golf Club Hudson Valley in Stormville and Trump National Westchester in Briarcliff Manor. The Trump name also adorns Trump Tower At City Center in White Plains, Trump Plaza in New Rochelle, Trump Park Residences in Yorktown and the Donald J. Trump State Park on the Westchester/Putnam border.
