    About Mark Risley

    Since I got my real estate license in 2007, I've had the pleasure of helping over 300 families and individuals find their perfect homes or sell their properties. Being recognized as a 5280 5-Star Agent every year since 2011 isn't just a title; it's a reminder that my clients' happiness is what matters most. I know that buying or selling a home is a big deal--it's not just a transaction, it's a life event. That's why I make it my mission to really understand what you need and what you're hoping to achieve. My goal is simple: to make your real estate experience as smooth and hassle-free as possible. I'm here to answer your questions, offer advice, and guide you so that you can make informed decisions with ease and confidence. When I'm not immersed in real estate, I'm at home with my incredible wife Kelly and our two amazing daughters, Faith and Quinn. We've been a team since 2009, and I treasure every moment we spend together. My family means the world to me, and they keep me grounded and inspired. Living in Colorado, I'm all about enjoying what our great outdoors has to offer. From golfing to hiking, or just kicking back in the neighborhood, I'm always up for making the most of our sunny days. If you're thinking about buying or selling a home, I'd love to help you out. Let's connect and get you where you want to be!

    Mark was an excellent partner in selling our home during a slower time of the year. He is very knowledgeable and provided great insights and excellent advice every step along the way. Cannot recommend enough!

    It was such a great experience working with Mark Risley as the listing agent for our home. I expected a nerve-racking ordeal based on previous realtors that I've worked with. But things this time went just perfectly smooth from beginning to end. It's either his extensive experience as a realtor or some sort of sixth sense (or maybe both?) that made the sale go so smoothly. He knew exactly where to price the home to create tons of interest and we had many offers well above the listing price. Prior to putting the house on the market, I had a list of several things that I wanted to replace or improve on and would have spent a bunch of money out of my pocket taking care of. But he said I just needed to focus on interior paint and getting it "staged" with furniture (which he organized for me), and really nothing else. He was 100% correct, as there were 24 showings in the first couple of days! Unbelievable! When we accepted an offer and the buyers came up with a list of things that they wanted addressed, I sort of panicked because I didn't have to the time or knowledge to find/organize the contractors to do the work. But no worries.... Mark does have a list of contractors that can take care of pretty much anything, but he thought it was best to just make some minor financial concession instead and that worked like a charm. The buyers accepted the terms and that was that. The buyers were elated and so were we! Such a Win-Win experience! Again, we were extremely impressed with the way Mark handled the whole process. I would never work with another realtor in the future, other than Mark. He's simply the best!

    Mark represented me in the sale of my house Zillow. He works for his clients and what they want to do he doesn't pressure you. He is available at the last minute to help with things. He is always in contact with you. I highly recommend Mark to anyone wanting to list their house

    Mark helped my husband and I purchase our very first home. Before going through this process I heard horror stories of how complicated and difficult it would be, but that wasn't our experience at all! It was so smooth I found myself asking if we'd missed a step somewhere (we hadn't). Mark is someone who will always take your call, is quick to find answers, and will support you fully through the homebuying process. We cannot recommend him highly enough!

    Mark was our Fantastic Realtor for the sale which occurred during a very difficult time of the year, during the Holidays. There was little traffic to look at the house, but about the 5th or 6th showing was the successful one. The initial offer was a contingency, but Mark calmly advised that we should decline the initial one and we got a follow up non-contingency full price offer. Thanks for the Great Work Mark!
