About Jeffrey
Meet Jeff Rickard — a trusted loan officer and Branch Manager VP with over 25 years of experience helping people turn the dream of homeownership into reality. Since 1998, Jeff has guided thousands of clients through everything from first-time home purchases to credit repair and down payment assistance. His approach is grounded in honesty, transparency, and accountability; qualities that have made him a go-to partner for both buyers and real estate professionals. Beyond his day-to-day work, Jeff shares his knowledge by teaching continuing education classes for realtors and loan officers, using real-life stories to highlight what makes or breaks a transaction. He’s passionate about supporting underserved families, advocating for human rights, and championing animal welfare because for Jeff, a home loan is more than numbers; it’s about community, opportunity, and building a foundation for the future. A Colorado native for over 47 years, Jeff is as much at home in the mountains as he is in the mortgage world. Whether he’s hiking, skiing, golfing, or soaking up the crisp mountain air, he brings the same energy and love for the outdoors into his work. If you’re ready to explore your homeownership options or just want to connect with someone who brings expertise, heart, and a touch of western flair, Jeff would be honored to help you take the next step.

Jeff is extremely knowledgeable and excellent with explaining the mortgage application and loan process. He is very communicative as he answered our questions immediately (even in the early morning and on weekends). He is also very attentive, positive and friendly. We really enjoyed working with him and will recommend him to all of our friends and family who apply for future mortgages.

You can tell Jeff really cares about his clients and wants to make the process as easy as possible. Jeff was very quick to get back to me and patient with all of my questions. He communicated with me frequently and would break down all of the processes as they were happening. What I thought would be stessful, was not thanks to Jeff.
