Rob Thompson

Broker Associate

Get To Know Me

Growing up in New Jersey, I had a desire to serve my country, and when it came time for my next step after high school I found that opportunity at the U.S. Air Force Academy. Little did I know what beauty awaited me in Colorado Springs! After graduation, I spent nine years on active duty and lived in four separate locations from coast to coast. I knew, though, that I would end up back in Colorado.
 
After I left the military in 1998, my wife and I put down roots in Colorado Springs. I put my education and training to work in corporate America, spending 18 years in various leadership roles with Verizon. Eventually, I realized that the opportunity to serve my community in a more meaningful way lay in the real estate business.
 
Having always kept real estate as an avocation, I transitioned from a part-time real estate investor of 13 years to a full-time Broker Associate. All told, I bring my 30+ years of military education, training and service, corporate training and experience, and real estate training and experience to bear for every client on every transaction.
 
I am honored every time a client puts trust in me to navigate one of the biggest financial transactions of his or her life. I take the obligation very seriously, and I'm very proud of the many satisfied clients that I've been able to help.

Director of Operations | Agent

Get To Know Me

The Director of Operations and a passionate real estate agent at Rob Thompson Homes. While my journey as a licensed agent has recently begun, my roots in the industry run deep, as I've been an integral part of the Rob Thompson Homes team for over a year.

Nestled against the breathtaking backdrop of Colorado Springs, my focus is on bringing a keen eye for detail to your quest for the ideal home. Guiding buyers through the intricate maze of options, I'm dedicated to ensuring that each step of your journey is seamless and informed. My tenure in real estate has equipped me with a profound understanding of the ever-evolving market, enabling me to provide you with insights that matter.

My affinity for homes sprouted from the very foundation of my upbringing. Growing up, my family owned and operated a construction business, imparting in me a wealth of knowledge about the intricate processes of building and remodeling homes. This unique insight, coupled with an innate sense of interior design, allows me to envision the true potential of a property, beyond its mere structure.

Beyond my real estate endeavors, I've been on an extraordinary journey of learning. I graduated from OSU in 2021, holding a Bachelor's of Science in Animal Science. As an equestrian team member, I understand the importance of dedication, teamwork, and the pursuit of excellence. Just as I've honed my skills in the equestrian arena, I'm committed to delivering exceptional service to you.

Raised against the stunning Colorado landscape, my family relocated here in 2009. This move not only ignited my love for this captivating state but also instilled in me a deep appreciation for its unique charm. Now, I'm thrilled to help others find their place in this remarkable community.

As we embark on this journey together, let's turn your real estate dreams into reality. With a blend of industry expertise, an eye for detail, and a heartfelt dedication to your satisfaction, I'm here to guide you every step of the way. Welcome home.

Colten Janssen

Broker Associate

Get To Know Me

A deep appreciation of community, hard work, and our beautiful state of Colorado makes me equipped to guide clients through their Colorado real estate journey. I look forward to putting my leadership skill set and my firsthand knowledge of the local market to work for you. 

As a Colorado native, I have a great appreciation for our beautiful state and all it has to offer and I always knew it’s where I wanted to settle down. I have been back in Colorado since 2007, after spending part of my childhood in a small rural town in Nebraska, and have experienced firsthand the rapid growth and change that the Denver area has seen.

Growing up in a small town in Nebraska I appreciate a strong sense of community, hard work, and a passion for helping others which led me to begin my professional career in building software. I have over 8 years of experience helping others achieve their goals through various leadership positions in the software space. I look forward to bringing that skill set into real estate to help others achieve their real estate goals.

Having gone through the home buying process myself, prior to becoming a REALTOR®, I have been in your shoes and I understand the difference a quality agent makes. Whether looking for your first home, your forever home, an investment property or looking into selling a property, I am here to go to work for you.
