In today’s Colorado Springs market, buyers need to be strategic, not just reactive. My advice is to get financially positioned early with a strong pre-approval and work with an agent who understands both the data and the neighborhoods. From VA assumable loans that can save thousands, to new build opportunities in communities like Banning Lewis Ranch, Percheron, and Sterling Ranch, I help buyers uncover options most people overlook. The goal isn’t just to win a house it’s to secure the best home for your future at the strongest terms possible.

Preparation and pricing are everything. In Colorado Springs, buyers are looking for move-in ready homes and strong value. I work closely with sellers to highlight their home’s best features, connect them with trusted stagers and photographers, and market aggressively across digital platforms. My strategy combines local market knowledge with proven negotiation skills so sellers maximize their return and reduce time on market while keeping stress low.

I’ve had the privilege of working with first-time homebuyers, move-up buyers, downsizers, military families relocating on PCS orders, and investors looking for long-term value. Many of my clients are veterans or active-duty service members who appreciate my expertise in VA loans and Colorado Springs’ military-friendly housing options. I also specialize in helping families explore new build communities, which continue to be one of the fastest-growing segments of our market.

ne of my favorite recent transactions was helping a young military family purchase their first home in Banning Lewis Ranch. They had a tight timeline due to PCS orders, and we were able to find them a home that fit their needs, negotiate favorable terms, and close on schedule. Seeing them walk into their new home with their kids were running through the backyard, reminded me why I love this business.

After serving as a U.S. Army officer, I wanted to build a career where I could continue serving others while creating something meaningful for my family. Real estate was the perfect fit. My wife Laura and I co-founded Beaton Brothers Property Experts to help families in Colorado Springs navigate the buying and selling process with confidence and integrity. Our mission is simple: treat every client like family and help them build their future through real estate.

Yes, beyond my years of hands-on real estate experience, I bring leadership, discipline, and attention to detail from my military background. I stay on top of Colorado Springs market data daily, maintain strong relationships with local builders and lenders, and have extensive experience with VA loans and assumable mortgages. This combination of training and local expertise allows me to provide clients with clear guidance, strong negotiation, and a smooth transaction from start to finish.
