Leading Development Since 2014
Since our inception in 2014, North Star has sought to build spaces and develop communities that people are proud to call home. We are big enough to close the transaction and small enough to know your name. If and when the deal gets tough, we get creative and scrappy to find the path forward when others would simply walk away.
Strategic Planning
We meticulously plan each project to ensure maximum value and sustainability.
Innovative Development
Our innovative approaches set new standards in land development.
Award-Winning Projects
Recognized for excellence in homebuilding and development.

Jon has been involved in the acquisition, development, and disposition of single family, mixed used, and large scale residential assets in Colorado, Texas, Kansas, and California. In the narrow window when Jon isn’t talking about real estate, he’s likely talking about CU football.

Sara is the first person both sellers and jurisdictions get to speak with at North Star. Identifying off market land and aligning the land use goals of the municipality with a development ready site is her specialty.
