I am a residential real estate broker with Madison & Company Properties. I serve Denver & the greater Metro area. I know the area extensively and can help advise clients based on schooling preferences, commutes, accessibility to the mountains, and other prioritized criteria for home buyers. I am also well-hearsed and experienced in the home-selling process. My niche and excitement is in houses and Denver has some of the nicest in the country!
Business highlights
12 years of trusted experience
Services we offer
I primarily help folks buy and sell homes in the greater Denver area. Knowing the Denver area extensively allows me to advise clients on areas they may want to consider living, especially when moving from another state. I have helped many first time homebuyers find their first house, while also offering investment strategy and opportunities to long-time investors continuing to build their portfolios.
Services we don't offer
I do not provide property management or help with rentals. I do not personally inspect, appraise, or design homes.
Working with Forrest on buying our first home was an absolute pleasure. He went above and beyond our expectations in helping locate and assess potential properties and his communication was excellent. Considering the inherent stress in purchasing a home, the difficult market for buyers in Denver, and the fact that we were doing this all from out of state, we had a lot stacked against us from the get go. That being said, the whole process ended up being very smooth and even fun, which I credit largely to Forrest's hard work, professionalism, and reassuring demeanor. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home in the Denver area.

Thank you so much for your kind words. This deal was definitely a bit more difficult with a lender and the buyers being out of state, but we got through it without any major holdups or roadblocks. Your diligence with the lending side and making a move across the country was also very necessary, and I thank you for that. Looking forward to seeing how the home decor is coming along soon.

Forrest was a tremendous help to my husband and I who were first time home buyers. The real estate market in the Denver metro area is quite tricky and very daunting for first time buyers but Forrest helped us each step of the way and made things simple and easy! He supported us in everything from where to look, what to look for, pricing, and of course the exciting part of bidding and contracts! We know many people who struggled in our market recently: they lost bidding wards, inspection negotiation fell through, or they couldn't sell their home on the back end. We didn't have a worry at all! After helping us find the perfect home Forrest was instrumental in guiding us through offers, bids, and the contracts. We laughed all the way to and through our home closing and had the best time! It was truly a celebration for my husband and I and we are so happy that Forrest was apart of it!

Forrest provided an incredibly easy experience in a market that is usually very difficult. I've heard so many Denver buyers talk about long processes with difficulties and complications, but Forrest made everything simple. He found me a beautiful condo at a better price than I could have imagined, and he answered every question along the way. You can tell that he loves the city and putting people in great homes and that makes the entire process more enjoyable. Forrest, I can't thank you enough

From the first meeting in March, Forrest was incredibly helpful and very professional. He immediately set us up in MLS and we started reviewing houses shortly after. We probably went around looking at houses with Forrest for about a month. He was very responsive and flexible with our availability. When we finally found the house we wanted, there was no doubt that Forrest would act in our best interest and get us that house. By April, we were under contract and Forrest was crucial in the entire process of the inspection, appraisal and everything in between. Moved into the house a month later and we really could not have done it without him.

My home buying process was smooth, easy and exciting. All showings were prompt. Forrest was always quick to return calls or e-mails. I never felt any pressure to buy or commit to anything/home. It was a fun and enjoyable adventure all and all!
Description of Work: Forrest found the perfect home for me. He knew what I was looking for well enough to contact me immediately after finding my (future) house, and set up an immediate showing. He was kind, professional, genuine and always easy to reach and communicate with during my entire search. Forrest loves Denver homes and truly enjoys helping people find a place that meets their needs, which you immediately feel when you meet Forrest. I can't say enough great things about Forrest as a real-estate agent and person.

When I contacted Forrest about setting up a tour of a property that just went up for sale, he had a showing setup with a matter of hours. I was stunned at how quick he was able to get something setup and rearrange his schedule to accommodate mine. Going over the property, Forrest noticed a lot of problems what my eye would not have caught. He was fast and too the point in recommending I do not pursue the property. His honesty was refreshing. I will continue to use Forrest as my agent while seeking out future properties.

Thank you so much for your review! I am always available to help clients fully assess a property that they're considering buying or selling. I am also more concerned that you end up in a solid home that you'll be happy with for years to come, rather than just making a sale. Thanks again!

When an investment property came up for sale next to me, I contacted Forrest to setup a showing. Within 2 hours we were in the house and touring it! The house needed a lot of work, and Forrest was very knowledgeable on each aspect of the property. He was able to provide a lot of tips and great ideas. In the end, he recommended I no buy the property because of the work it required and it already being overpriced. I really appreciated his honesty and will be using him goign forward for any other opportunities that present themselves.
