I am a laser-focused residential real estate broker with a background in building, renovating, and investing in properties. Licensed in Colorado since 2011, I have closed hundreds of deals for clients and in my own investment portfolio. I’m a licensed General Contractor in six Colorado cities and counties. Like many real estate pros, I entered the business as a second act. Straight out of the University of Wisconsin, I was a print journalist. See samples of my work at https://www.denverpost.com/author/tom-larocque. When newspapers began to die, I started buying, renovating, and building homes. When I realized how my own experience could help clients, I became a broker. In that role, I seek first to understand your needs—often by asking the second or third "interview" question and comparing your interests to what’s out there in the market. I am a marketer, negotiator, and advocate for your interests in a field where clarity in communication is key.
