Growing up in Fairbanks, Alaska, Colin learned the value of working hard and earning the trust of others early on. A third-generation real estate broker, he graduated from college and moved to Seattle, drawn by the Emerald City’s dual offering of booming business opportunities and incredible outdoor adventures. After gaining valuable experience as an appraiser, Colin soon became a broker. That is when he discovered his affinity for helping people achieve their real estate investment objectives. Over 13 years, he has built an impressive network of U.S. and international real estate partners—from the Pacific Northwest to the East Coast, and around the world.
Thanks to his broad scope of experience with projects big and small, Colin and his team have the ability to deliver a project from the acquisition phase to new construction home sales, tailoring their level of assistance to meet your specific needs along the way. Specializing in land acquisition, Colin has extensive experience in sourcing capital, permitting, and construction management. Whether he is working with local or National builders, contractors or first-time investors, Colin has a sterling track record of successfully helping his clients execute on unique opportunities of all product types—even after the transaction closes. If you need assistance underwriting construction services, GRM, or IRR, you can count on his proven expertise.
Colin and his trusted colleagues provide investors and seasoned developers with access to a full-suite of services from A-Z, including architects, engineers, designers, general contractors, and pre-sales.
Colin holds degrees in Business Management and Marketing. He credits his ability to successfully navigate complex business transactions, in part, to the opportunities he has had to travel the world, where he worked with a diverse group of cultures in disparate environments. A skilled communicator, he developed the ability to truly listen and empathize with people while rebuilding homes and schools after the 2005 Tsunami in Sri Lanka. These experiences have enhanced his outlook on life and enriched his appreciation of cultural diversity.
When he is not helping clients realize their real estate goals, Colin enjoys boating on Lake Washington, snowboarding in the Cascades, or hiking and exploring the PNW with his wife Cassandra, son Brayden, and energetic Chocolate lab, Reggie.
