<p>Forrest was born in the bluegrass hills of Kentucky, but spent the majority of his formative years growing up in a small town in Indiana. He graduated from Lebanon High School in 2003 and went on to study Communication at DePauw University. While attending DePauw, Forrest was a member of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity and he spent a semester abroad in New Castle, Australia. After graduating from DPU in the spring of 2007, Forrest packed his Suzuki Sidekick with the few possessions he had and moved to Denver as soon as he could.</p> <p> </p> <p>Forrest quickly fell in love with Denver’s parks, unique and diverse neighborhoods, great food and nightlife, and everything else this amazing city has to offer. Coming from the midwest, where many homes are vinyl-sided and cookie cutter, Forrest was also drawn to Denver’s architectural diversity and uniqueness. From the 1880s Queen Anne's to the 1960s Frank Loyd Wright’s, Denver’s homes embody the transitional growth that occured as more and more Americans moved west.<br /><br />After working in a variety of industries, Forrest decided to bring to his passion and experience in sales and client service to the real estate industry. He took the real estate exam and became a realtor in June 2013. He spent his first six years with Madison & Company Properties where he was named Rookie of the Year, Golden Key Winner for 2018 sales, and went on to make the top 10 of their monthly agent ranking numerous times.</p> <p> </p> <p>Forrest is a social guy who really enjoys being around people. With a strong knowledge of home systems and construction, Forrest also brings a keen eye to the table for his clients, whether buying or selling. He identifies possible issues in a home’s structure as well as possibilities for future improvements, understands renovations and associated costs, and most importantly, he coaches his clients in making wise financial decisions. Forrest is passionate about his work, enjoys the people he gets to meet along the way, and especially appreciates working with clients who will ultimately become friends. From the first tour to the final sale, Forrest is committed to helping his clients make sound investments for their wallets and their families.</p>
Client Reviews
What my clients are saying
“Forrest was amazing to work with throughout the entire process of selling our home in Denver. We were looking for a quick turnaround time on getting our house on the market and sold because we were already under contract on a home in Michigan. He helped to quickly get the paperwork completed, staging setup, photos taken and the home listed. We appreciate how communicative he was and helped to get our home sold for a good price. Highly recommend Forrest as a great realtor.”
