Jesse Engel

Jesse grew up in the southern Denver Metro area before attending Colorado State University in Fort Collins, where he graduated with honors with a degree in finance & real estate with a minor in economics in 2007.

During his time at CSU, Jesse completed an internship with McWhinney Real Estate Services, an award-winning commercial real estate developer based in Loveland, CO. While Jesse had every intention of moving back to the Denver area after graduating from CSU, he and his wife Abby had fallen in love with Northern Colorado and decided it was the best place to raise a
family. They have since been blessed with four incredible children.

Jesse became licensed in 2008, just as the real estate market was experiencing a significant downturn. He quickly realized that he needed to learn everything he could about short sales and foreclosures, so in 2009 Jesse teamed up with a top-producing agent who specialized in distressed properties, and Jesse grew his business based on his knowledge of the foreclosure process and being a resource for buyers and sellers navigating what was a difficult market at that time.

In 2017, Jesse accepted a position as the employing broker at a nationally recognized real estate brokerage firm. He added the role of productivity coach to his responsibilities in 2019 and has since joined forces with the largest real estate brokerage firm in Northern Colorado as a managing broker
and development coordinator.

Jesse is well-versed in real estate contracts and has taught contract classes to many real estate agents across the State of Colorado. He uses that knowledge in his personal business to advocate for his clients. He understands the importance of customer service and keeping his clients informed throughout the transaction. His goal is to create lifelong relationships with his clients to become their trusted real estate advisor by providing a full range of real estate services and advising them on the risks and benefits of all aspects of a real estate transaction.

Brie Aljets

Brieonna grew up in real estate with her Mom as a Broker, and has held a number of positions within the industry over the last 15 years. These roles include: team leader, managing broker, Buyer's agent, Association Executive, and productivity coach throughout IL, TN and CO. Currently, she holds a managing broker's license and has a degree in Education. Her passion is training and consulting; she teaches real estate school as well and enjoys bringing humor into the classroom. Let's be authentic, the ins and outs of real estate can be ahem...somewhat boring. Without a laugh she's not sure anything qualifies as success. Having taught first grade previously, she's more than prepared to handle any situation in the classroom! 

Outside of work you can find Brieonna spending time with her family and friends. She enjoys trail running, working out, and snowboarding. Just like most Gunnison residents, she came for the winter but stayed for the phenomenal summers. Growing up in the Midwest, she is thrilled to avoid the extreme humidity that IL had to offer. Her husband is a distinctive metal artist; and they have a wild, loving 6-year old boy. And yes, Brieonna may be caught writing a Real Estate course on the weekend...
