Real estate and community are two passions Brett Sawyer learned from his mother, who taught her family that investing in housing could create financial security where there had been none. Brett is a native of Boulder, Colorado with a valuable depth of knowledge about the real estate market in this special and unique portion of the state. He quickly distills his clients' needs and desires into a bespoke solution. Brett's expertise extends from the broad array of communities and neighborhoods in the Boulder Valley to an understanding of construction techniques to an ability to analyze current market information and strength in negotiating complex transactions. Brett has worked in international markets and with global clientele, in addition to his years as a Boulder Valley real estate specialist. This experience provides him a unique perspective on the importance of home ownership and community involvement. He's naturally inquisitive and loves to share his hometown with newcomers, relocating families and first-time buyers. Brett's deep experience in the luxury market parlays into his love of helping first-time buyers or those new to the area gain their footing as locals. Being a "local" for Brett extends to his love of shopping at independent businesses as well as climbing, cycling, hiking, fly fishing and skiing in the great Colorado outdoors. He enjoys exploring the best restaurants in the area and sharing that knowledge with his clients. Brett's affiliation with Kentwood Real Estate combines his fondness for a local brand with the strength of Berkshire Hathaway's backing. "Kentwood has an incredibly deep and solid reputation in both the real estate community and the buyer/seller/homeowner community," Brett observes. Membership in Luxury Portfolio International, Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate and Leading Real Estate Companies of the World has provided Brett additional support for marketing properties globally and to gain broad market knowledge. These affiliations provide access to the best real estate professionals around the world. Brett serves as 2023 Chairman of BOLO REALTORS, the Boulder Valley's REALTOR association. His goal is to raise the bar of professionalism for members, which in turn benefits consumers. He's past Chairman of the Boulder Area REALTOR Association and has received multiple awards as a 5-Star Real Estate Professional. He's a Certified Negotiation Expert and a Ninja Selling coach and trainer. Brett's desire to help his community extends to his charitable giving. He donates a portion of his commissions to Community Food Share based in Louisville, CO and to World Bicycle Relief which provides bicycles and support to remote villages in Africa.
