The Steamboat Group

   The Steamboat Group consists of Jon Wade and three team members. Having a team allows Jon to provide better service, know the market better, implement effective marketing plans for sellers based on what is working today and maintain an effective web presence to serve your needs.  Jon is a partner in Colorado Group Realty, LLC and proud to be part of Steamboat's best local brokerage.

Jon Wade

   Jon's approach to real estate differs from most.  He loves being a part of a business where each day is unique and he is given the opportunity to meet and develop relationships with interesting people.  Real estate is more than just a job for him, and it shows.  Living by the sentiment that "if you take care of others, you won't have to worry about yourself", Jon continually strives to do what's best for you.


   Over 80% of Jon's current business is with existing clients, friends or referrals from them, demonstrating the satisfaction people have with his approach to real estate.  In addition to residential real estate, he works on luxury properties, recreational ranches, commercial,investments and land.  Jon is currently on the Board of Regents for Luxury Real Estate.  His diverse portfolio of work helps him maintain a deeper understanding of the market as a whole.  Jon believes that the people and their goals for spending time here are just as important as the business details. He makes an extra effort to understand your goals, help you get to know Steamboat if you don't already and develop the knowledge to allow you to make a great decision.  This includes introducing you to the best things to do, friends and any other resources you may need.


    As a committed father and husband, Jon has an appreciation of family life in Steamboat that he loves to share and works to enhance.  Jon is not only an active dad with two young kids, he is also very active in the community through his participation in the Steamboat Springs Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, Finance Committee, the Steamboat Springs Urban Renewal Authority Advisory Committee, the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club, the Yampa Valley Fly Fishers Board and various other groups.  Jon has developed an invaluable network of people around town that helps him know the inside story, look out for your interests and see opportunities before most. Jon is also active on the Luxury Reat Estate Board of Regents a group of 10 Top Luxury Brokers that guide the Luxury Real Estate organization.  Jon was given this honor for his business and internet marketing expertise.  This benefits you because he regularly works with some of the best people in Luxury Real Estate, gets the most current insights into real estate marketing and technology and relationships with top firms in Steamboat's key 2nd home markets. Let him put his networks to work for you.


   Jon's is also unique in Steamboat due to his 16 years of experience working at Hewlett Packard on top-level business strategy, finance, marketing and getting 5 start-up businesses off of the ground. The skills he picked up at Hewlett Packard differentiate him in real estate. He is proud that clients describe him as unlike any other real estate agent they have worked with.  The best measure of this is how many clients actively refer Jon to their friends. Jon doesn't take this for granted and works hard every day to earn this honor.

   Our market and the real estate industry as a whole continues to evolve more rapidly. Unfortunately much of our industry is stuck in the past, wondering why no one is calling or doesn't take proactive action to further their client's interests.  Knowing more about what is going on in the market locally & nationally, current best practices in marketing & technology and negotiation help Jon represent you at a different level than you can find elsewhere.  Jon works very hard to follow key changes, learn something new every day and implement best practices into his services on a weekly basis. He reads extensively and actively compares notes with key brokers nationwide.  What professionals did even 1 year ago is no longer in the best interests of buyers or sellers so Jon is committed to staying with things that help him effectively represent you effectively.  Ask him for some examples.

Erik Ramstad

  Erik is responsible for managing our marketing.  He helps Jon implement web strategy and is a skilled graphic designer so our marketing stands out online and off.  Erik and Jon work together to make sure your property has the most visibility where buyers are looking today.  Together, they focus on cutting edge marketing that is effective in today's market.  

Peggy Spitellie

Peggy is responsible for managing our transactions and listings.  She is skilled at managing each client's transaction from beginning to closing to ensure that all contractual obligations are met.  She also manages our process to market and actively sell listings by taking proactive steps on a regular basis. Peggy can provide you with information quickly when Jon is out showing property or in a meeting.

Wendy Wade
